"I voted in favour of this motion for a resolution which calls for Member States to support European cinema in coping with the challenges of the digital era.
This report highlights the social and educational role of cinema and stresses the need to conserve its diversity. The digital challenge should therefore be beneficial for all. Unfortunately, however, the good health of the cinema industry in Europe virtually only benefits large multiplex cinemas and leaves the rest of the profession, which is made up mostly of small entities, in a very weak position within an extremely competitive environment. It is therefore essential to protect small cinemas, in particular art-house cinemas and those in rural areas, which are not mutually exclusive, through strong support from Member States.
We should also support ‘film education’ for as many people as possible namely by promoting the widest possible distribution of films within Europe. The report also calls for better use of the European digital library ‘Europeana’ for film and all other multimedia works."@en1
