In an era where cinema and digitalization are deeply intertwined, “seeing” a film often becomes synonymous with being able to access it.

Chute Open is not merely a curatorial series; it is an intellectual proposal that probes new questions around access, value, and sharing, examining the relationship between seeing and accessing.
