SUMMARY:PopChange Film Club: Other Cinemas Shorts
DESCRIPTION:Join us for the second edition of PopChange Film Club – Counterpoints’ new monthly programme at RichMix London. \nThis month we’re teaming up with Other Cinemas to showcase some of our favourite short films from the Other Cinemas Film School – a free\, year-long film school which provides new and emerging filmmakers from diverse backgrounds with mentorship and guidance to create confident\, imaginative\, and curious filmmakers who are interested in the transformative potential of filmmaking. \nThis screening is followed by a Q&A with some of the directors of the films\, chaired by PopChange producer Laith Elzubaidi. \nFeaturing: \n– Red Jeep by Chanthila Phaophanit\n– A Swing In Atayfiyah by Bediah\n– Do Not Dream of Wonderful World by Leena Habiballa\n– Out Of Place by Ruweyda Sheik-Ali\n– We Have Only What We Remember by Chanthila Phaophanit\n– An Archive Of Flowers by Siufan Adey\n– Still House by Chanthila Phaophanit\n– Dead As A Dodo by Leena Habiballa\n– Bladi – My Country by Leila Gamaz\n– I’ve Perfected Sleep Travel by Nia Fekri\n– Moon Rising by Bediah \nOther Cinemas is a Brent-based project established by the filmmaking duo Turab Shah and Arwa Aburawa who saw the need for better and more equitable ways of film-making\, sharing\, and education. Seeing these three strands as inseparable\, their work attempts to create a vital and holistic alternative to the industry that addresses its racial and class biases. Their work is rooted in our diverse neighbourhoods in northwest London\, some of the most racially diverse in the country but chronically underserved in terms of cultural provisions. \nFull details and booking: https://richmix.org.uk/cinema/other-cinemas-short-film-showcase/
