A Cinema in Mathare

This is a cinema in Mathare where kids and other people go to watch videos. Gangsters hide in here and when the police raid, even innocent kids are killed in the operation. It is a good resting place but on the other hand it can be the source of someone’s death.

This kids like watching movies but they don’t have any money, so they steal money from their mothers and others sell some small pieces of scrap metal to raise money for watching the video. These videos cause a lot of harm to the addicted children. They can not perform in school and others end up being gangsters out of peer pressure.
