Uplink Kichijoji アップリンク吉祥寺
Five-screen indie cinema under Kichijoji PARCO with individually designed auditoriums, flat-panel speakers and craft-beer snacks.
About
Opened in 2018 by the distributor Uplink, this mini-theatre complex has five small screens, each with its own design theme, and custom flat-panel speakers in every auditorium. Programming mixes documentaries, indie and arthouse films from Japan and abroad. Metropolis lists it first in its 2026 guide to Tokyo's independent cinemas. Foreign films are normally screened in the original language with Japanese subtitles (look for 字幕 on the schedule, not 吹替 = dubbed); Japanese films are usually shown without English subtitles.
