MUBI presents
A monthly session to discover cinema through sound. Together we explore soundtracks, composers, and soundscapes that have shaped some of the most memorable films. A space for those who enjoy looking closely and listening with equal curiosity.
Hi-Fi Stereo
We play digital audio of the highest quality through our analog system: tube amplifiers and OJAS KO-R1 speakers. Designed by Devon Turnbull, the KO-R1 creates hyper-realistic and detailed, warm and natural soundscapes. They generate absolute presence in the sound. In our space designed for deep listening, you will discover hidden details, textures, and movements impossible to feel in headphones.

why Pulp: What Do You Do for an Encore?
This session accompanies the release of Pulp: What Do You Do for an Encore?, the documentary that MUBI premieres on September 25. Directed by Garth Jennings and narrated by Jarvis Cocker, it tells the story of Pulp with archival footage and their most recent show, part of the "More" tour. On sona we present a selection of songs from the documentary, meant to be listened to on their own, without images. For one hour, music is the only thing that matters. A different way to get closer to Pulp before watching the documentary on MUBI.
curated by MUBI
MUBI is a global streaming platform, producer, and film distributor, devoted to a single idea: that films deserve to be watched attentively. It was born from the conviction that great cinema—the ambitious, the daring, the unforgettable—needs a space that cares for it and defends it. Since then, it has curated, produced, and distributed works by iconic directors and new voices that are redefining the language of cinema. More than a platform, it is a way of inhabiting cinema: with time, with discernment, with wonder.

FAQ

yes. cancel any booking through this website. you'll get credits for the seats you paid for if you cancel at least 24 hours before the session (12 hours if you have an active Sona Members or All Access subscription). inside that window the booking can still be cancelled, but no credits are issued and there are no cash refunds. credits work on any future session.

no, but we recommend wearing something comfortable for sitting on the floor. because the room is very quiet, we recommend soft fabrics. try to avoid "noisy" synthetic materials like nylon or windbreakers, as the sound of moving in them can be distracting to others. also, we leave our shoes at the door, so we recommend wearing warm socks.

if you need a chair for medical or physical reasons, please let us know when you arrive.
can i buy a drink?+
yes, we serve a curated selection of non-alcoholic drinks and light snacks, but all refreshments must be finished before you enter the soundroom.
