In a rundown cinema in Massachusetts three younger employees are spending the time by washing floors and operating the last 35 mm film projectors in the state. Their petty conflicts and their heartbreaks unfold among the empty cinema seats and soon appear more poignant and powerful than the lackluster discount movies which are displayed on the screen. With much insight and a finely tuned comical eye Annie Baker has written a funny and heartbreaking play about authenticity in a rapidly changing world. She is winner of the 2014 Pulitzer Prize.
