Sunday Screenings in the Living Room
Weekly screenings from a large archive of many of the most significant, yet seldom seen and rarely accessible cinematic masterpieces in the history of film - from its earliest beginnings to the present day. Screenings are in original language, if English, or original language with English subtitles.
Films are selected democratically on the inspiration of a brief pre-screening discussion. The selected title is typically a "neglected gem" that most of us discover together for the first time. Individual taste is not a criterion and all participants are expected to put the interests of the group as a whole above personal preference or prejudice. In this sense, the emphasis is on openness, exploration, and surprise. Each screening is followed by an in-depth group discussion, led and moderated by the curator.
WARNNG: FilmStory is not just about watching movies! Rather, it's a socially responsible, intellectual engagement, involving an organic approach to group study of film language, philosophy, art, history, politics, and technology. In this sense, the film is always merely the current highlight in an explorative, ongoing group discussion.
**FilmStory** is a members-only series that involves a closely knit community of cinephiles. Events take place every Sunday in a comfortable, private setting with limited capacity. Participation is reserved primarily for regular members, but we're always ready to make new friends!
Non-regular members may request to meet the community and, upon acceptance as a "new joiner," are welcome to participate in one event, according to space availability. New joiners are asked to make a âŹ6 member dues contribution in advance of the requested date. New members receive a message of confirmation and the address of the Living Room in 1080 Vienna upon receipt of their dues contribution.
**FilmStory** is presented and hosted by **[KulturSalon Wien](https://www.meetup.com/kultursalon-wien/)**.

Lachflash Comedy Open Mic â Dein Sonntag @TheComedyPub endet mit Lachen
**Deutschsprachiges Comedy Open Mic in Wien. Lachflash statt Tatort â der perfekte Sonntagabend mit neuen Comedians & freiem Eintritt.**
# [HOL DIR DEINE TICKETS HERE!!!](https://www.universe.com/events/lachflash-comedy-open-mic-dein-sonntag-thecomedypub-endet-mit-lachen-tickets-8QGW97?ref=MeetUp)
Sonntagabend und du Ăźberlegst, ob du dich mit Netflix aufs Sofa wirfst oder dich schon auf den Montag vorbereitest? Falsch gedacht! đ Wien hat jetzt eine bessere Antwort: **Lachflash Comedy Open Mic**. Jeden Sonntag um 18:00 wird *The Comedy Pub* zur BĂźhne fĂźr deutschsprachige Stand-up-Comedy â roh, echt, witzig, manchmal absurd und immer Ăźberraschend. Der perfekte Wochenend-Ausklang fĂźr alle, die nicht aufhĂśren wollen zu lachen.
**Lachflash Comedy Open Mic** ist das groĂe Finale des Wochenendes. Hier bekommst du einen wilden Mix aus **Newcomern**, die ihre ersten Schritte auf der BĂźhne machen, und **erfahrenen Comedians**, die neues Material ausprobieren. Manchmal entstehen hier Jokes, die in ein Jahr später in Specials oder Fernsehsendungen landen. Manchmal scheitert ein Gag glorreich â und genau das sorgt fĂźr die lautesten Lacher des Abends.
Mit **vielen Comedians pro Show** (oft mehr als 10!) erwartet dich ein abwechslungsreicher Abend:
* Ăberraschende neue Stimmen, die dich mit ganz frischem Humor Ăźberraschen
* Kreative Experimente, die kein Mainstream-Comedy-Club sich trauen wĂźrde
* Scharfe Pointen von erfahrenen Comedians, die genau wissen, wie man eine Crowd zum Toben bringt
Kein Sonntag gleicht dem anderen. Jede Show hat ein komplett neues Line-up â das macht **Lachflash** zu einer Serie, die man immer wieder besuchen kann.
Und das Beste: Hier ist das Publikum nicht nur dabei, sondern ein aktiver Teil des Abends. Deine Lacher, dein Applaus, dein Staunen â all das beeinflusst, wie die Comedians ihre Jokes entwickeln.
## đ¤ Was ist ein Open Mic?
Ein Open Mic ist das HerzstĂźck der Stand-up-Szene. Es ist keine perfekt inszenierte Show â sondern ein Ort, an dem Comedy entsteht. Hier probieren Comedians ihre neuesten Texte aus, feilen am Timing, improvisieren mit dem Publikum und lernen, was funktioniert.
Das heiĂt:
* Manchmal knallt ein Joke sofort â und alle feiern.
* Manchmal floppt eine Pointe â und genau daraus wird ein unvergesslicher Moment.
* Immer aber ist es spannend, nahbar und authentisch.
Wenn du echte Comedy erleben willst â ohne Filter, ohne Drehbuch, ohne Sicherungsnetz â dann ist ein Open Mic genau dein Ding. Und **Lachflash Comedy Open Mic** ist Wiens neue Adresse dafĂźr am Sonntag.
## đť The Comedy Pub â Das Zuhause der Stand-up-Comedy in Wien
Die Show findet im **The Comedy Pub** (KettenbrĂźckengasse 7, 1050 Wien) statt â Wiens erster und einziger echter Comedy-Club. Während andere Bars ab und zu Comedy hosten, ist das hier das Zentrum einer Szene.
Oben erwartet dich ein gemĂźtlicher Irish Pub mit Drinks, Snacks und freundlicher Atmosphäre. Unten im Altbaukeller â oder im offenen Pub-Bereich â wird jede Woche Stand-up gespielt, getestet und gefeiert. Die Location ist bekannt fĂźr ihr **nahbares, internationales Publikum** und ihr warmes, intimes Ambiente.
Und das Beste: mit der U-Bahn-Station **KettenbrĂźckengasse (U4)** direkt vor der TĂźr bist du in wenigen Minuten mitten im Geschehen.
## đĄ Eintritt frei â Spenden willkommen
Comedy lebt von Community. Damit mĂśglichst viele Menschen Stand-up erleben kĂśnnen, ist der Eintritt frei. Aber: Lachen ist wertvoll â und wenn du einen **Lachflash** hattest, dann zeig das! Am Ende der Show geht ein Hut rum, in den du geben kannst, was es dir wert war. Fair, direkt und die ehrlichste Form von Applaus.
## đď¸ Regeln fĂźrs Publikum
Damit die Show fĂźr alle ein Erlebnis wird, bitten wir dich um ein paar einfache Dinge:
* Sei pĂźnktlich â die TĂźren Ăśffnen 17:30, Showstart ist 18:00.
* HĂśr zu und respektiere die BĂźhne â Comedians geben hier alles.
* Lachen ist Pflicht â und zwar ohne ZurĂźckhaltung!
* Kein Heckling â die Gags kommen von den Profis. đ
* Spenden sind willkommen â support your local comedy!
## đ Warum Sonntag?
Viele denken: Sonntagabend = Couch, Serien, frĂźh ins Bett. Aber warum so trist? **Lachflash Comedy Open Mic** ist der perfekte Gegenentwurf: eine Show voller Energie, Lachen und Ăberraschungen â bevor der Montag wieder ernst wird.
* Es ist der **perfekte Wochenend-Ausklang** â Comedy statt Tatort!
* Ein Fixpunkt, der dich mit einem Lächeln in die Woche schickt.
* Ein Raum, in dem du neue Comedians entdeckst, die du sonst nie gesehen hättest.
* Und: die einzige regelmäĂige deutsche Comedy-Show am Sonntag in Wien â im einzigen Comedy Club der Stadt.
Kurz gesagt: Sonntag gehĂśrt jetzt nicht mehr dem Montagsblues, sondern dem Lachflash.

You Exist Too Much by Zaina Arafat

Location: The Goat River South
219 S High St, Columbus, OH 43215
Street parking is free on Sundays

Book summary:
On a hot day in Bethlehem, a twelve-year-old Palestinian-American girl is yelled at by a group of men outside the Church of the Nativity. She has exposed her legs in a biblical city, an act they deem forbidden, and their judgement will echo on through her adolescence. When our narrator finally admits to her mother that she is queer, her mother's response only intensifies a sense of shame: 'You exist too much,' she tells her daughter. Told in vignettes that flash between the U.S. and the Middle East--from New York to Jordan, Lebanon, and Palestine--Zaina Arafat's debut novel traces her protagonist's progress from blushing teen to sought-after DJ and aspiring writer.
