When I saw Barco Escape, I identified with a cutting-edge immersive experience and I knew we had to bring it to our audience. We are very excited about the opening of our first Escape Boat on the Acoxpa Promenade, and we look forward to surprising our customers once again," said Gabriel Morales Becker, Director of Digital Cinema Strategy at Cinépolis.
