Director’s miniature movie theater wows people. Clip ends with sweet twist

Movie theaters, across several countries, are still closed to ensure safety amid the ongoing pandemic. Though need of the hour, it’s true at times people may miss the experience of watching a movie in a cinema hall. Turns out, director Tom Kingsley felt the same and came up with his own ‘lockdown cinema’.

A video he shared on Twitter shows him demonstrating his miniature movie hall. And, to say that his creation is amazing is an understatement. What makes the clip even more fascinating to watch is the guest appearance of a very adorable gatecrasher towards the end.

We won’t give away too much, watch the video and enjoy:

Thank you! I didn't do a making-of, but the ingredients are:
