Aviemore’s Spey Valley Cinema will resume its screenings from later today.
It relaunches this evening with the screening of Kenneth Branagh's highly acclaimed 'Belfast'.
The film is a movie straight from Branagh's own childhood experience from Northern Ireland in 1969.
Beginning with the August riots that kick-started the Troubles, a nine-year-old boy must chart a path towards adulthood through a world that has suddenly turned upside down.
Sing 2 will be a daily morning screening at the cinema at the Macdonald Aviemore Resort, while there will be 'panto' performances of Robinson Crusoe in the venue for three days this coming week.
The cinema closed temporarily in early January citing the lack of demand for its 600-plus seats.
The venue had only re-opened at the end of last September for the long Covid-delayed premiere of Daniel Craig’s final Bond film No Time to Die, rolling out the red carpet and the cocktails for guests.
Only a small selection of films had been screened along with the Christmas pantomime following the re-opening after the Covid restrictions.
The operators had said the intention was to re-open in time for the February half-term.
Macdonald Aviemore Resort managing director Iain Miller, said: "We're delighted to be re-opening the Spey Valley cinema following the winter break.
"From Sing 2 to Belfast, there are some fantastic films lined up for the coming week, as well as our February half-term panto 'Robinson Crusoe', showing Saturday, Tuesday and Thursday.
"March will offer an equally wide-ranging mix of films with 'The Batman' screening from launch night on Friday 4th, and 'Riverwoods' on Friday 25th.
"It is a feature-length documentary from rewilding charity, SCOTLAND: The Big Picture, that shines a light on the perilous state of Scotland's salmon and tells a compelling tale of an inextricable relationship between fish and forest."
Tickets can be bought from the kiosk or online at www.speyvalleycinema.co.uk
