Iranian films are known to be heel spannend, infusing fiction and real life experiences together. They are often poetic and philosophical with a fusion of humanistic themes. The film "It Was Just An Accident" is the winner the most prestigious award in international cinema this year, the Palme D'Or at Cannes Film Festival. The movie is also based on the film director's own experience with the authorities in his country.

Welcome to our Haarlem Movie Discussion Club
If you’re a cinephile or simply someone who enjoys the magic of the big screen, this is the right club for you. Our club is dedicated to bringing movie enthusiasts together, offering a unique blend of contemporary film viewings and retrospectives of classsic cinema from the 1950s onward.

The idea is simple:
Go to Filmkoepel, Pathe or Schuur to watch a movie, and then talk about it. Come on time so you won’t miss the movie!

Looking forward to seeing you all there!
