Film and Chat - Oceans (OV With German)
Film and Chat - Oceans (OV With German)
Let’s watch the film “oceans” and join the chat that is organised by the cinema afterwards. The film will start at 17:45. The film will be in English with German subtitles, but the chat would probably be in German only. As usual, everyone buys his/her own ticket. See you at the movie.
