The 51-seat Cinema Skhole opened its doors on February 19, 1983, and was originally owned by Japanese film director Koji Wakamatsu. Wakamatsu thought that “even if young filmmakers make the kind of films they want, it is difficult to screen them in movie theaters that distribute major works,” and wanted to open a movie theater with the aim of providing a venue for them.
Wakamatsu operated the theater until his death from a vehicle accident on October 17, 2012, and by the end of the year, the theater became the first mini theater to feature 3D installations. Junji Kimata took over operations from Wakamatsu after his death, followed by Atsushi Tsuboi who still operates the theater today.
