This is a read the book and watch the movie on your own, then discuss event. We'll be meeting at Table Public House on Saturday April 4 at 2:00 PM.

The Book
Project Hail Mary was written by Andy Weir in 2021. His previous book, The Martian, was also best seller. Project Hail Mary is available at most book stores and online retailers. The audio book is available through Audible

The Movie
The movie is currently slated for release on March 20th and stars Ryan Gosling and Sandra Hüller. It probably won't be available to stream prior to this event, so plan on seeing it in the theater.

Ryland Grace wakes up on the spacecraft Hail Mary with amnesia and two dead crewmates. He gradually recalls that he was a middle-school science teacher recruited for a desperate mission to the Tau Ceti star system.

Palestine 36 - Sie FilmCenter - Sun, Apr 5, 6:00 PM

Sun, Apr 5 · 6:00 PM MDT

Sie FilmCenter, 2510 E Colfax Ave, Denver, CO, US

Palestine 36 was Palestine's submission for this year's Academy Award for Best International Film. Join us!

• Here is the trailer for the film.
• And here is the film's page on Rotten Tomatoes. (It's "100% Fresh"!)

We'll meet at 6:00 for the 6:15 screening. Look for me in the theater lounge; I will have a small Denver Cinema Club sign. Tickets are $10 for Denver Film members and $15 for non-members. The screening is in the small (but plush!) screening room, so I recommend arriving early or buying your ticket in advance.

After the screening we'll gather again in the lounge, then walk over to Bruz Off Fax to chat about the film. Bruz has tasty Belgian beers, wine, root beer, and various snacks available.

For those driving, there is a free parking garage behind the theater, accessible from the alley.

If you are new to the club, please read our Civil Citizens Guide before RSVPing.

See you at the Sie!

DCC in the Community: Volunteer Event @Mutual Aid Monday

Mon, Apr 6 · 4:00 PM MDT

Bannock St & 14th St, Denver, Co, US

In times like these, it's not only important but necessary that we stand in solidarity with our neighbors and give back to the community, so I would like to thank you in advance. Please be sure to read the FAQ below.

Join me for a volunteer event at Mutual Aid Monday! Mutual Aid Monday is a grassroots, mutual aid community in Denver founded in November 2020 by Kelsang Virya. Every Monday, MAM provides hot meals, hygiene, survival gear, etc. to help our neighbors experiencing homelessness. All of this is possible because of a community that shows up and shows out. DCC will do the same!

I discovered Mutual Aid Monday in 2021 after researching for a group that directly impacted those in need, as well as looking for an alternative to deceptively evil entities like Goodwill. I've been a patron since!

I Swear - Free Advance Screening - Sie FilmCenter - Mon, Apr 6, 6:30 PM

Mon, Apr 6 · 6:30 PM MDT

Sie FilmCenter, 2510 E Colfax Ave, Denver, CO, US

Before you RSVP, please:

• Read the description below carefully
• Also read our Advance Screenings page

We have a small number of seats for a free advance screening of I Swear, the story of John Davidson and his life with Tourette syndrome. Active members of the club--those who attend our regular events--will get priority for the seats. When you RSVP, you will be added to the wait list, and I will move people from the wait list to the "going" list by hand. Please RSVP only if you are sure you can attend.

The studio reps have asked for our guest list by Friday, April 3. If you are on the "going" list on Friday afternoon, we will expect you at the movie on Monday evening. Again, please RSVP only if you are sure you can attend.

Arrive by 6:30 for the 7:00 screening. Skip the line if there is one, and check in with the studio reps. They will check your name off their list and direct you to your seat. (They usually seat everyone in the club together, but not always.) Don't be late! If you arrive after 6:30, you could lose your reserved seat.

• Watch the trailer for the film.
• See the film's page on Rotten Tomatoes.

After the movie (a little after 9:00), we'll meet in the theater lobby, then walk over to Bruz Off Fax for drinks and discussion. Look for me in the lobby; I'll either be wearing a DCC sweatshirt or holding a small DCC sign.

See you at the Sie!

I SWEAR
In theaters April 24, 2026
Written and Directed by: Kirk Jones
Synopsis: Based on the life story of Tourette Syndrome campaigner John Davidson, MBE. Set within 1980s Britain, the story follows him throughout his troubled teens and early adulthood, and explores this little known and entirely misunderstood condition, along with his attempts to live a ‘normal’ life against the odds.
