kino.ie is being rebuilt as an Irish cinema and film-going guide: independent venues, film clubs, festivals, repertory screenings and practical explainers for people who want more than the weekly multiplex list.
The previous editorial direction did not develop into a useful, durable site. This restart makes the domain simpler: cinema, film culture and practical discovery. That gives kino.ie a clearer long-term search path and removes the legal and reputational drag of personality-led commentary.
kino.ie should not publish gossip, personality dossiers, unsourced allegations or stale event listings. If a claim needs a current programme, venue page or official announcement, the public page should link to that source or avoid the claim.
