A short film about the ongoing efforts to breathe life back into Prestwick's iconic art-deco cinema. Opened in 1935, it closed in 1976. Now the Friends of the Broadway Prestwick is actively restoring it with the goal of relaunching it as an independent cinema, multi-purpose venue, and community hub. The closest commercial theatre is the Odeon at Ayr's Forge Retail Park, about 5 miles away.
