What we’re about

This group will meet on a monthly basis to discuss films that lead to good conversations on how to live a more meaningful life.

Group members will watch the film ahead of time.  Once the meeting starts some time will be given on the background of the director and the context of the movie. 

I would expect the meetings to last no more than an hour and half.

The movies we will be discussing are not those made for the purpose of entertainment or escapism.  These movies will be those of directors who use cinema to capture and communicate the questions of existence and meaning.

This quote from a short documentary by Like Stories of Old about the films of Andrei Tarkovsky captures the essence of the films we will discuss:

"There is an intangible quality to being human, a potential for deep emotional experience, which cannot be grasped through logic or reason, which truly cannot be described in words, but which can be felt intuitively, intimately. It is in this both elusive and obvious aspect of the human condition that Tarkovsky saw something transcendental - something that can only be captured through art."

The group will be limited to 10 people.
