3. Late pass holders can also try the "happy minutes" and join the queue.

WHAT TO DO IN CASE OF AN AIR RAID SIREN
In the event of an air alarm, the screening will be interrupted, and we will ask you to leave the hall and go to the nearest shelter: either directly in the Zhovten cinema (designed for 70 places), or to the nearest metro station Kontraktova Ploshcha. Our volunteers will help you find your way to a safe place.
After the end of the air raid siren, we resume the screenings according to the schedule. All tickets and passes are still valid. If it is impossible to continue the screening or change the screening schedule, the audience will be additionally informed about the possibility of exchanging and returning tickets.
