The film will play in theaters until October 25. However, only a small group of viewers can watch it at once, as 8K cinemas use a reservation system to limit contact between people and reduce the likelihood of them being infected with the coronavirus. The film will be available later – first in Full HD and then in 8K – on Samsung's YouTube channel.
Visitors will also have the opportunity to view Samsung's lifestyle audio-video products in the cinemas, including The Frame TV or the range of 4K Ultra Short Throw laser projectors, and its latest smartphone flagships including Galaxy From Fold 2 a Galaxy From Flip 5G.
