Format:

1. Watch the movie BEFORE attending.
2. Come to discuss the movie with us.

We will form small groups (4 people max) so that you can get to know each other. If there are more people, we will make more groups.

The goal is to share and be received. More passion and curiosity about others' perspectives than debate and trying to prove your point
