Kinokopla is a film club, open to everyone, maintained by the Student Union of the University of Turku. The club has been running since 1965 and it’s managed by a board appointed by TYY. Every spring and autumn season, Kinokopla presents eight to ten films chosen by the board of the club. Kinokopla aims to show a diverse selection of films in different genres and countries of origin to create a high quality compilation of recent cinema.
In addition to the film series, Kinokopla operates and participates in all things concerning cinema. For instance, the club organises a wide array of movie-themed events as well as various screenings outside the series. These include taking part in Turku Film Day during spring and autumn as well as organising a showing during the Nights of the Arts Festival.
The movies are shown in Kino Kilta at the Taiteen talo (Nunnankatu 4, 20700 Turku), Sundays at 4 pm and 7 pm.
The prices for the season cards are 38 € and 34 € for students. This includes all 8 movies of the season. Season cards, for the earlier (16:00) and for the later (19:00) screening, can be bought in advance at the movie theater Kino Kilta, Student Union Office (Yo-talo A, Rehtorinpellonkatu 4 A) and Bar Ö (Linnankatu 7). In Kirjakahvila and Bar Ö there is only cash payment available. Single tickets for a movie can be bought for 8 € per movie. They are available for purchase at Kino Kilta 10 minutes prior to the screening – provided that there are seats left after the season card holders have been seated. Purchases can be made with cash or by card.
Unless mentioned otherwise films are subtitled in Finnish and Swedish; films in which the spoken language is Finnish, subtitles will usually be in English.
