“Seven of our cinemas were damaged due to rocket attacks: in Mariupol, Zaporizhia, Kherson, Odessa, Kiev and two in Kharkiv. Three cinemas we have already restored and resumed showings: in the capital “Retroville” in summer, today (November 18 – IF) in Kharkiv Shopping and Entertainment Center Nikolsky and Odessa Shopping and Entertainment Center Riviera,” Romanchuk said.
According to his estimates, it needs $20 mln to rebuild all cinemas.
“Some cinemas are completely destroyed: in Zaporozhye and Mariupol. In Kherson, part of the SEC “Factory”, where our cinema is located, suffered less, there is theoretically possible to restore, but our experts have not been on site. In Kharkiv “Dafi” the resumption of sessions is technically possible, but not from the point of view of security at this stage”, – said Romanchuk.
