The Culturist Film Club is an offshoot of this blog, initially as an online film club between April-June 2020, during the COVID-19 lockdown and in 2022 launched as an in-person event. The aim is to screen a variety of contemporary and classic cinema in cultural venues across Dubai. Screenings so far have been hosted at Alliance Francaise, Jameel Arts Centre and Kutubna Cultural Center. They include film introductions, followed by discussions with audience members, and occasionally with an invited guest speaker.

Please get in touch if you’d like to be added to the mailing list, or if you would like to collaborate or host a screening at your venue.
