Saar Cinema Just Closed Down And Bahrainis Are Reacting To It Online

Saar Cinema was announced officially closed on Thursday.

After over a year of rumors of its shutdown, the news hit town overnight. The notice was posted on Bahrain Cinema Company’s Instagram account earlier that morning.

It’s also no longer on the Bahrain Cinema website.
