JGC Film Appreciation Club

The John Gray Centre Film Appreciation Club 2024 programme kicks-off on Thursday, 14 March at 6pm (Star Room) with a ‘fantastic female’ themed screening for Women’s History Month. The Club will be screening Where Do We Go Now? (2011), a comedy by Lebanese & Canadian actress, director, and activist, Nadine Labaki, which tells the story of a group of women who try to ease religious tensions between Christians and Muslims in their village.

The film explores the complex and taboo subjects of sectarian violence, religion, and patriarchal oppression in contemporary Lebanon through humour expressed almost entirely by women.

Refreshment and post-screening discussion/expertise is provided. ELC staff can attend free-of-charge provided you show your staff pass.

Otherwise, club membership donation towards costs is £15 per term (Spring & Autumn) or £30 per year. This allows free entry to all screenings (6 films per term). Single entry/guest/visitor donation charge is £5.
