For decades, the Pobeda Cinema remained a landmark of Minsk. Today, with five redesigned halls, Pobeda has combined its vintage charm with modern technology. The five new, refitted halls are all equipped with the Mirage 1.7 screen from Galalite in combination with NEC RGB laser projectors.
The Mirage 1.7 screens use proprietary Lensray Technology from Galalite to eliminate speckles, a common problem found with RGB laser projectors.
“We are proud to have partnered with Kraftwerk in the renovation of Pobeda Cinema, Minsk,” said Siranush Whyte, general manager of sales for Galalite.
“Renovation of an old five-hall cinema in the style of the 1950s is something splendid. We appreciate Alexandr Handogin and the Kraftwerk team for their expertise and dedication, which has gained extremely high value from the customer and a lot of technical specialists.”
"After the three-year restoration, now the elder cinema in Minsk, Pobeda, is reopening already," said Handogin. "It has transformed from one hall into a five-hall cinema, maintaining its 1950s charm while becoming one of the most high-tech and beautiful cinemas in the city. We used the latest video and sound technologies, including projection screens with Lensray Technology and RB laser projectors. This combination permitted the highest image quality without the speckle effect. Both customers and technical experts are very impressed with the work done."
