In the location's words:

Founded in 1986, LUMIÈRE sees itself as an alternative to commercial cinema. We show feature films and documentaries that are artistically outstanding, contribute to current social issues and encourage debate. Programming often takes place in cooperation with other cultural institutions and initiatives in Göttingen - networking is important to us. Audience discussions with filmmakers and other guests are an integral part of the program, as are screenings in the original version with German subtitles, short film programs and children's films. Silent film screenings with live piano accompaniment bring classic films to the big screen. Theater groups such as the Göttingen Comedy Company with its monthly improv show have their performance venue at LUMIÈRE, as do the children's theater of the Domino association and the City of Göttingen's puppet theater days. In summer, there are regular open-air cinemas in the Brauweg outdoor pool.

Three annual festivals are the highlight of the program. The silent film festival takes place in early summer, with a gala performance in the Deutsches Theater as the finale. The Children's Film Festival offers a special selection of films for young audiences and great hands-on activities. November traditionally belongs to the European Film Festival Göttingen, with a focus on the current filmmaking of a selected European country or region. The Göttingen Short Film Festival has been a new part of the European Film Festival since 2021.
