>Why spend taxpayer money on enabling people to watch braindead, mindrotting zombie movies for free or cheap?
Might want to open their webpage at least once before you spout such uninformed opinions: https://kinoregina.fi/
Their whole thing is showing mostly culturally important films from known and lesser known directors/actors from around the world. I honestly don't think it could provide much more cultural value than it already does.
I was going to write more but the more I read your post it just looks like troll post so I'll just point out that yes, they do also provide movie and arts education, which is also stated on their website.
Even if that wasn't the case, having popular media isn't bad. It's a gateway to the rarefied, less accessible parts of the medium that everyone goes through. No one starts out watching arthouse, reading Kierkegaard, or programming in untyped lambda calculus.
