The cinema created by Louis and Auguste Lumière and their operators was the first in the world. The Lumière films are among the finest, yet the least well-known. 

Two feature films, Lumière, the Adventure Begins and Lumière, the Adventure Continues, were theatrically released in France and abroad to great success. L'Aventure Lumière is a rare publication, illuminated by Lumière photograms and enriched by Thierry Frémaux's enthralling commentary.
