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

"Five" suggests that we pause and embrace life's simplicity. In a world that often rushes us from one moment to the next, this film gently urges us to slow down and appreciate the unhurried beauty of existence.
