It is in a former theater set rue Mouffetard, in Paris 5th arrondissement, you will find this small local movie theater. L'Epée de Bois, listed art house, offers to watch movies in second exclusivity if you happen not to have been able to enjoy them in mainstream movie theaters. With a program mostly focused on French and European movies, you will also enjoy art house movies and heritage movies. Enjoy “extended” sessions, a great asset not to run after all the movies you have not been able to enjoy when released. Movies are all played in original versions, excluding some cartoons for a younger audience during Wednesday afternoons sessions.
L'Epée de Bois is also a place of exchange as movie-debates are held several times a year to address different themes: eloquence, homeopathy, pregnancy… And in addition to these entertainments, this independent Parisian movie theater is one of the Telerama festival sponsors, returning yearly.
A small local movie theater enjoying two auditoriums each up to 130 seats, where in the same street stands the Mohamed Arkoun library, perfect if you are a bookworm. Within a 3-minute walk from the movie theater, enjoy the Church of Saint Médard, historic building from the 12th century. And 350 meters further, visit the famous Place de la Contrescarpe and its theater. Or you can walk down the rue Mouffetard and enjoy all the stands of the Marché Mouffetard, covered in fresh produces, meats or fishes. The choice is all yours!
