Film enthusiasts who like their cinema experience to take place in an independent movie theatre will be happy to hear that the Cultural Centre in the Plaza de Libertad are showing original version films this autumn.
No need to take a bus to Puerto Banús or a taxi to Marbella to see your favourite Hollywood blockbuster or Scandi film noir, as San Pedro has its very own unique Odeon.
