Meet Judy Kim, owner and operator of the Gardena Cinema - the last single-screen movie theater in Los Angeles that's run by a family. Or at least, what's left of her family. It's really just Judy now and despite her love and commitment, the cost of keeping a single-screen theater alive is not without its challenges. Covid. Strikes. Decreasing movie audiences. Most people would have given up by now, but not Judy. By making huge sacrifices and adapting her business model, she's turned the small community theater into a larger communal destination movie house for cinema fans all across Los Angeles and Orange County. Her optimistic attitude has even inspired a small army of volunteers, all trying to help save Gardena Cinema. So grab your popcorn, and let's all go to the movies.
