With its two screens showing only “Latin” films (ie films from Spain, Portugal, Italy, Latin America, and more rarely Romania), and its dance-floor upstairs hosting Latin dances classes, Le Latina cinema has become over the years an inevitable place for Latin cultures’ enthusiasts wishing to watch an Almodovar film downstairs while hearing the noise of High Heels on the floor above…
In 2009, Le Latina was slightly renamed in Le Nouveau Latina (The New Latina), and it slightly changed too, even if it keeps its strong Latin identity. Most of the films are still from Latin countries, but the programming is broader now, and also includes international auteur cinema (with a preference for films about homosexuality: we’re in the deep heart of the homosexual section of the Marais).
The first floor has been renovated and is now Le Salon Rouge, a very cozy tea salon (open between 14:00 and 21:00) which also hosts a small store selling DVDs, film posters and books about cinema. If you add photography / drawing exhibitions and tango classes on Monday evenings, it makes Le Nouveau Latina the perfect multidisciplinary space for modern “Latin lovers”…

Paris has always been on top of my must-go-list and I have been planning of the places to visit with reference to magazines and such but this blog really gives you the spots which I find amazing. I love the idea of romantic ambiance, the Eiffel tower and the people with the beautiful language. This particular blog post really gives me a different and new things to love and must visit in Paris. Thanks.
