Over the last few years, his theater has often promoted art films. Ticket sales have been good, indicating that the city's "consumption" of art is becoming more diverse. This has made Lin more willing to invest in this area. He recently selected a few movies by the famed Iranian director Kiarostami Abbas for an Abbas film exhibition that he is organizing.
電影也是一個指標，近年他的電影院常推出比較藝術取向的影片，票房不惡，顯示高雄的藝文消費出現多元化的趨向，讓他更勇於投資，最近他即選擇了國際聞名的伊朗導演阿巴斯的幾部名片，如《橄欖樹下的情人》，舉辦一個「阿巴斯影展」。
