Rodina Cinema, Ufa

The following year, the Council of People's Commissars of the Bashkir ASSR approved the construction of the cinema, and engineering and geological surveys of the site were carried out.

Ultimately, the architect Semyon Yakshin designed a new project of a two-hall cinema for 700 persons.

[1] On opening day, thousands of Ufa residents visited the new cinema, and watched the movie "Незабываемый 1919-й год" / Nezabyvaemyy 1919 god (The Unforgettable Year 1919).

[2][3] Patrons could arrive early and enjoy ice cream at the cafe, “plop” cologne from a vending machine, or admire locally drawn posters depicting new films; parents could leave their child in the children's playroom.

In the 21st century, the foyer has been used for personal appearances by film directors, and for art exhibitions; ice cream is still served there.

[5] The cinema now has a Dolby Digital Surround EX format sound system, comfortable soft seating, and, since December 2009, the "Red" room has been equipped to show films in 3D.
