Rue de la Machine à Rêves is a covered passageway connecting the different entities of Cité du Cinéma (school, offices, studios, etc.) and serves as the main access route to the venue’s event spaces.
Its exceptional dimensions make it one of the Cité du Cinéma’s most iconic heritage features, centred around a turbine that stands as a striking reminder of the site’s industrial past.
Large bay windows and a glass roof spanning the entire space provide exceptional natural light.
