Sao Paulo
There are 3 premium screens in Sao Paulo, IMAX. The biggest picture is at Espaço Itau de Cinema IMAX, Bourbon Shopping Centre — 228 m² of lit screen, 19% more than the next room.
No room here can show the full 1.43:1 IMAX frame. Every screen in Sao Paulo crops to 1.90 or wider, so a film shot with IMAX cameras will be missing about a quarter of its picture wherever you see it.
