Our meetings consist of a screening of an arthouse film, followed by a discussion. The discussion is led by one of our members or sometimes a guest speaker and encourages members to share their thoughts and interpretations of the film.

Curator's Note:

Moving towards cinema about making cinema, (which we are calling "Making Art"), we have "About Some Meaningless Events" by Mostafa Derkaoui. A gonzo film of a crew venturing the subject for a film as they make a film!

Who are The Parallel Cinema Club?

We are a community-run film society based out of Bengaluru and Hyderabad. We are a group of film enthusiasts who meet up to discuss the real world, auteurs, and themes, and occasionally host guest lectures.
