摘要

Being shown around the Star and Shadow Cinema one cold December afternoon it's hard to keep track of all the people speaking to me at once. Between architects and the venue volunteers there's half a dozen accompanying me around, a cohort added to every time we enter another part of the building by others more than ready to add their tuppence-worth to the story of a space born of nothing and built by them on a shoestring budget. I seem to be being carried through the place on nothing but a wave of effusive energy; which is as it should be for something conjured up on a wing and a prayer.
