People look at paintings in a pedestrian underpass in Moscow, Russia, 11 February 2013. The pedestrian underpasses in Moscow are full of diversity, both in terms of the people who pass through them and the services on offer. Shops, temporary market stalls, buskers and art galleries are a staple sight here. For some, the underpass is a way of crossing the street or a shelter to get out of the rain and snow. For others, it is a place of work, somewhere to eat and drink, or even somewhere to sleep

To mark 100 years of Indian Cinema, a Marathi film "Touring Talkies" is being screened in a makeshift tent theatre just like the days of yore, in its pre-multiplex and pre-single screen glory dating back 50 years. The tents, keeping in mind modern audiences, will have plush seating, air conditioning and popcorn and cola alongside fresh sugar-cane juice, roasted groundnuts and gram and pickle and other tit-bits. The cinema will screen four shows per day for a week. The idea of touring talkies was the brainchild of the doyne of Indian cinema, Dadasaheb Phalke, after he saw the British watching movies in tents. The touring cinema would travel through rural India and screen movies in makeshifts tents. At present, one can only find these talkies - whose sweltering tents and basic facilities contrast with the plush, air-conditioned multiplexes springing up in Indian cities, during Jatras (village fairs) in the interiors of the state.
