We've done one showing in an open space between a transit house (which provides rooms for people passing through town, so it attracts people from all over the province,) and the sea. We also did a showing in another village a couple of hours away from town. In fact, it was for enough away that my white skin scared one young boy. (He initially didn't want to see the movie because of the "dim dim," but was persuaded by his parents.)
The screen is a round white fabric with sleeves along the edge, into which flexible poles are inserted (like the new tent poles...light.) When the movie is shown on this screen, it can be viewed from either side.On these warm nights, outside under the stars and moon, watching people watch a movie of Jesus is pretty special! 450 came to the showing by the sea, and 90 came to see the movie in the more remote village.
After the film is shown, one of our students tells their story of how their personal walk with Jesus began, and another reviews the gospel again. For some of our team, it's the first time they've spoken up front to a crowd of people. Faith-stretching stuff!
