Event details: Cinema & Struggle: 9 to 5The People’s University Project presents
Film screenings and political discussion, organized by the People’s University Project.
A regular space to meet one another and enjoy films collectively, building relationships and a culture of discussion outside formal political spaces.
Different interpretations, disagreements and political questions are part of the discussion. Talking them through can help us sharpen our ideas and learn from one another.
Films people want to see, affordable tickets and a welcoming atmosphere can bring people together whether or not they are already politically involved.
Interested in cinema and political discussion? Help shape what we watch and how we discuss it.
The committee’s tasks are tentative and can develop with the group.
