The Sderot Cinematheque was established in December 1999. It was founded by Haim Bresheeth in cooperation with Sapir Academic College and Sderot mayor Eli Moyal.[1]
The Sderot Cinematheque, also known as Cinema South, hosts the Cinema South International Film Festival, and is a prominent cultural and film institution located in Sderot, Israel. Established to serve as a cultural hub in the Negev desert, it plays a vital role in the community by offering a diverse range of film screenings, cultural events, and educational programs. Despite Sderot's proximity to the Gaza Strip and the challenges posed by frequent security concerns, the Cinematheque has become a symbol of resilience and a beacon for cultural enrichment in the region.It also screens the final projects of Sapir College film students.[2]
The Cinematheque is open for screenings seven days a week. It is a member of the Coalition of Cultural and Heritage Institutions in the Negev and the Galilee, an umbrella organization seeking to create the infrastructure for discourse and cooperation between cultural and heritage institutions in the Negev and Galilee.
