Roll On, Cinema

Description

It all began in Paris. Etienne-Gaspard Robertson gave one of his first screenings of "Fantasmagoria" in 1798. But how did we move from the magic lantern to the cinematography of the Lumi©·re brothers? Robertson, Reynaud, Plateau, Muybridge and Marey spearheaded the adventure. Thanks to these brilliant inventors, we travel across the 19th century, ending in Paris in 1895 in the Salon Indien du Grand Caf©♭, where the first public movie screening took place.
