#This meetup is around a third-party organizer (Focus Filmtheater): you can either purchase your ticket online or right before the session. **Seats are numbered**# **Title**: L'engloutie **Language**: French **Subtitles**: English **Length**: 98 min **Director**: Louise Hémon **More info**: https://www.focusarnhem.nl/agenda/lengloutie-2/ **Ticket link**: https://www.focusarnhem.nl/tickets/143042/ **Synopsis**: On a stormy night in 1899, Aimée, a young republican schoolteacher, arrives in a snowbound hamlet on the remote edges of the French Alps. Despite the villagers’ mistrust, she’s determined to shed light on what she sees as their dark beliefs. As she gradually becomes part of the community, a sensual vertigo begins to grow within her. Until the day an avalanche claims the life of a first mountain dweller. **How it works**: I will be at Focus around 18:30, where we can meet before the movie starts. You can message me to find us. Screening starts at 19:00. After the movie, we can have a drink together. Hope to see you soon!

Pokeravond in Hilversum – kleine vaste groep We spelen eens per twee weken op woensdagavond. Ontspannen sfeer, beetje competitie en een kleine inleg. We zijn een vaste groep en hebben nog plek voor 1–2 mannen die het leuk vinden om vaker mee te doen. Je kunt eerst een keer aansluiten om te kijken of het klikt. Lijkt het je wat? Stuur even een berichtje.

Hi all! 🙂 On Wednesdays we welcome you to practice languages! If you want to practice a specific (uncommon) language, please send us a message so we can find some conversation partners for you on our mailing list! We hope to see you in Café Marktzicht! In the last year we had tables for the following languages: * Dutch * English * French * Italian * Spanish * Turkish\* * German\* * Portuguese\* * Danish\* * Norwegian\* * Russian\* * Arabic\* * Chinese\*\* * Japanese\*\* * Indonesian\*\* * * Most likely, but not every week present. \*\* - Rather rare ;-) If your language is not in this list, please let us know!

Stel je voor: een avond waar karton en ideeën vonken geven. Waar pionnen geen plastic zijn, maar gesprekstarters. Waar een prototype geen “bijna-af” product is, maar een laboratorium op tafel. Spellenmaakgilde en The Serious Gamers bundelen hun krachten en brengen het beste van twee werelden samen. **Het Spellenmaakgilde** is een community voor makers van bord- en kaartspellen: testen, schaven, opnieuw proberen. Idee > prototype > feedback > beter spel. **The Serious Gamers** richt zich op spellen die meer doen dan vermaken: ze zetten spel in als middel om te leren, gedrag te spiegelen en gesprekken op gang te brengen op de werkvloer. Op **woensdagavond 22 april** draait alles om Serious Game Prototypes. Heb jij een spel in ontwikkeling dat iets wil blootleggen, oefenen of veranderen? * Een spel dat teams helpt elkaar écht te begrijpen? * Een spel dat mensen kritisch laat kijken naar hun werk of naar de maatschappij? Dan is dit jouw moment. We bouwen samen aan spellen die niet alleen leuk zijn, maar iets in beweging zetten. 📍 Locatie: **Café Oproer in Utrecht** 🕖 Tijd: **19.00 - 22.00\*** 💶 Deelname: **gratis** 🎲 Doel: **testen, leren, aanscherpen** Neem je prototype mee. Of kom spelen en feedback geven. Maar kom vooral! Meld je aan en schuif aan tafel. \*Aan tafel kan ook voor avondeten, de locatie is vanaf de middag geopend. Dus kom er gerust (op eigen kosten) wat eten vooraf.

**Zin om even helemaal offline te gaan voor een avond?** Doe mee met onze offline hangout. Of je nu alleen komt of samen, je maakt gegarandeerd nieuwe connecties! **Wat kan je verwachten:** 🎨 Speel (bord)spelletjes, knutsel of relax met een goed boek 📚 Een nostalgische avond in een gezellig café 🎈 Ontmoet nieuwe mensen op de ouderwetse manier 📰 Schrijf met onze vintage typemachines Gratis entree! **Waar?** SOIA (Kanaalweg 199, Utrecht) **Wanneer?** Woensdag, 22 april (vanaf 19:00)
