MADRID, SPAIN – SEPTEMBER 30: Cinema seats are empty at Cuatro Caminos Renoir Cinemas hours before it closes for good on September 30, 2013 in Madrid, Spain. The Renoir Cinema will close down due to financial difficulties, since opening its doors in 1986. The financial crisis, the high rate of illegal movie downloads and the VAT increase from 8 to 21 percent a year ago have lead many cinemas to close. In Madrid center 40 cinemas have closed down in the last 10 years.
