16 – 22 JUNE

This year, Counterpoints Arts and Other Cinemas – two organisations who work across intersections of racial justice, migration, and climate – have collaborated on a film programme for a community-powered week! 

The programme, curated by Other Cinemas, consists of 5 shorts and 2 feature length films that explore the theme of #communityasasuperpower. From emergency responders in El Salvador supporting their communities in crisis to the familiar smell and taste of home to bring comfort, these films invite us to celebrate the diverse way we build and sustain our communities. 

16 – 22 JUNE

We meet most Tuesdays from 6pm - 7.15pm at Kala Sangam Arts Centre opposite Broadway Shopping Mall. 

Drop us a message, or just turn up. Our team will welcome you and make you feel at home.
