Banten, IO – Provider of film rental services for live screens, Nur Iyan (50), maintains a collection of celluloid films in the Pamulang, South Tangerang, Banten (3/8). Amid the incessant advances of the digital era, film rental services for mobile movie theatres (layar tancap) still persist and are in demand by a number of groups for holding entertainment events.

Nur’s collection consists of around 450 celluloid film titles from various genres in 35 millimeter format made between 1976 and 2013. He rents these films to fellow celluloid film fans and mobile screen service sellers from Rp100,000 to Rp500,000 per title.
