German Chancellor Angela Merkel on Wednesday announced measures — called"lockdown lite" — that will see cinemas, along with most restaurants, bars, clubs, and concert houses, close their doors, starting Nov. 2.

. The news of a second enforced closure came just hours after German film industry organization SPIO warned that another national cinema lockdown would have"dramatic consequences" for the German film industry and exhibition market. "Exhibitors and the trade organizations have been working for several months to ensure that people have a safe and carefree cinema experience,” said SPIO President Thomas Negele."To date, there are not any known infections in cinemas anywhere in Germany, not even in corona hotspots."

Ahead of Merkel's announcement, German exhibitors organization HDF Kino had also pleaded with the government for a"differentiated and intelligent approach" to closures that would allow cinemas to stay open.The Robert Koch Institute, Germany's equivalent of the CDC, reported nearly 15,000 new COVID-19 infections on Wednesday. Without the strict new measures, Merkel argued, the country could soon have 28,000 new infections a day.
