Middle of the day, proprietor allows a nose around the cinema, all to the background soundtrack of a 1970's Bollywood blockbuster. Downstairs also includes family areas - half a dozen seats set apart from the rest of the cinema.

These days however it's strictly for males. Q: apart from watching the fine selection of fleshy-action movies during the middle of the day what other activities does the darkness, noise and relative emptiness offer a young, privacy deprived Kabuli lad?

Definitely take time out to see these movie theatres in rural Uganda; and the micro-plexes in Chengdu and in Dharavi.
