Abstract: The present invention relates to a cassette for storing cinema film rolls (7). The cassette (14) comprises a first portion (15) and a second portion (16) which are essentially plane-parallel and separated by a spacing which exceeds the thickness of a cinema film roll (7) and connected by a connecting part (17). The cassette (14) also has an opening (18). The invention is characterized in that the cassette (14) comprises bearing supports (25, 26) for weight-relief against a horizontal circular table (4, 5) when the film roll (7) is moved between the cassette (14) and the circular table (4, 5). The invention also relates to a method of transferring a cinema film roll (7) between a storage cassette (14) and an essentially horizontal circular table (4, 5). The cassette is positioned so that bearing supports (25, 26) of the cassette (14) bear against the circular table (4, 5) and so that a contact edge (27) of the cassette (14) is fitted against the peripheral edge (28) of the circular table (4, 5).
