Matthew Sweet transports listeners into cinemas located around the world with a series of short features, eavesdropping on their stories, their characters and occasionally trying the snacks. In this programme, Matthew is in the Rustaveli cinema in Georgia. Like the country itself, this cinema has moved on from the days of the USSR. But in the past the programme wasn't all Soviet epics celebrating heroic Russian workers, they showed Bollywood films. But what's showing at the Rustaveli tonight?
