Impressions de France (Impressions of France)
Is a film about France and the featured attraction in the France Pavilion of Epcot's World Showcase at Walt Disney World in Florida. The movie is presented in the Palais du Cinéma building and projected onto five adjacent screens, giving 200° coverage and resembling a Cinerama Screen, in which one giant, curved screen stretches so wide that the edges are at the peripheral vision of the average person. (This is not a Circle-Vision 360° Theatre, in which a person stands and turns to look at 9 screens all around them with a projector between every pair of screens. The Canada and China films in the World Showcase are in Circle-Vision 360° Theatres.)
