Summer Cinema Club - Week 4

A series in six parts! We watch a movie then discuss its history and current relevance. Think of this as your independent film school.

You do not need to have attended the other sessions to sign up.

Also, please note the earlier start time for this session.

The fourth week of Summer Cinema Club is subtitled Indie Darlings. We will watch a film and then Kyle Marshall will lead a discussion on how the independent movement in the late 80s and early 90s once again changed Hollywood and how this film signalled the arrival of an important American filmmaker.

This event is sponsored by the Calgary Society of Independent Filmmakers. CSIF was founded in 1978 by a collective of twelve filmmakers who saw the growing need for film resources and film equipment on the traditional Treaty 7 territory of the Blackfoot Confederacy (Siksika, Kainai, Piikani), the Tsuut’ina, the Iyarhe Nakoda Nations, the Métis Nation (Region 3), also known as Calgary, Alberta. Now over 40 years later we are an integral part of the growing cultural community in Calgary and are excited about new collaborations and opportunities.
