After the initial dramatic situation in Šternberk calmed down, connected with the emergence of an independent one Of the Czechoslovak Republic, its gradual post-war renewal began. At this time two cinemas were established in Šternberk; one of them was established by Otto Saxinger († circa 1945). He belonged with his brother Max (1879–1962) among the pioneers of cinema and later among cinema builders in the north of Moravia. Other such in the Šumperk region were the Oeser brothers.

The Saxingers held their first cinema performance in Sternberg in 1901, then traveled with a nomadic cinema around Moravia and Silesia. It was opened in 1911 by Otto in Šternberk, the first still cinema (it is not known at what address) and Max in the cellars premises of the town hall of Šumperk.
