Jean Buisse and Paul Bottazzi are two genius inventors from Lyon, whose workshop produced the "rolls" of 35mm and 16mm cinema film projectors from 1946 to 2007.
Phillipe Piccot has devoted his entire life to cinema (manager of Cinéma du Chablais). Passionate about the 7th art, he presents an impressive collection of projectors, from 1900 to the present day.

An exhibition of vintage film posters completes the collection.
