A reader of TVNET+ has shared her experience at the Apollo Kino Domina cinema in Riga on June 15. She attended the evening screening of the film "Obsession" with friends, which started at 9:45 PM. At around 11:00 PM, the screening was abruptly interrupted and an evacuation was announced.

The reader noted that the situation was unexpected and caused concern. She wanted to know how often such incidents occur and whether it is possible to receive a refund for tickets if the film is not watched in full.

In this publication, TVNET+ does not provide answers to these questions but indicates that the topic will be further clarified. Currently, there is no official comment from the cinema regarding the reasons for the incident or the handling of viewers' rights.

This event serves as a reminder that emergencies can happen suddenly in public places, and people should be prepared to follow safety instructions. Meanwhile, the question of ticket compensation and the cinema's responsibility remains open until additional information is provided.
