France has allowed non-essential shops, museums, and bar and cafe terraces to reopen. Cinemas have also got the green light, and Vincent Erlenbach, who runs Cinema Utopia in Bordeaux gives us his reaction. Also in the programme, ahead of largely symbolic elections in Syria next week, the 大象传媒's Ed Butler reports on how a significant source of foreign currency for the country's ruling elite now comes from the sale of drugs, and in particular a type of amphetamine called Captagon.
