Kino Aero sits slovenly in one of Prague's ubiquitous courtyards in the working class neighbourhood of Žižkov. Aero is an art house cinema where dogs are allowed and the dead air as you wait for the screening to begin is filled by a playlist designed by Prague's oldest independent station, Radio 1. Local talents are fostered with short film competitions and exhibitions. The bar serves up chilled Czech beer to audiences with discerning tastes and social consciences. The seats have drinks holders that accommodate beer and shots. And luminaries such as Terry Gilliam and Agnieszka Holland participated in Q&A sessions at retrospectives hosted by Aero. Screenings are often full, but creative seating is encouraged. Films vary from the new Sherlock Holmes to The Story of the Weeping Camel.
