Film Club: Short Films Screening & Discussion

November 12 @ 7:00 pm
Free

 

 

Join us for the next Film Club meeting on Wednesday November 12 at 7pm.

We will screen 3 short films live and in person together at Yellow Studio. In between each screening, we’ll open the floor to discussion. All 3 films will fall under the umbrella of a female-centric theme.

 

Film lineup:

Reneepoptosis, Japan/USA, 2018, Best Animation at Sundance, Renee Zhan’s short film is a provocative exploration of self. Three Renees go on a quest to find God—who is also Renee.

I’m Not a Robot, Netherlands/Belgium, 2025, Winner of the 2025 Academy Award for Best Live-Action Short. Victoria Warmerdam’s short film, a series of failed Captcha tests plunges a woman into a strange new reality.

Bus 44, China and Hong Kong, 2001, In Dayyan Eng’s short film, set in the outskirts of a small town, a bus driver and her passengers encounter highway robbers. “Bus 44” carries a universal theme that travels across all boundaries and societies, trespassing the dark side and bright side of human behavior.

Beth will send links to the films a week or so before November 12 so that people can watch beforehand if they’d like (watching before is not required though).

This session’s conversation will be led by Beth on topics from the film such as theme, style, genre and more!

The Yellow Studio Film Club is a group of women who are interested in watching and discussing female-centric stories that have been on the big screen. Each month, a different film will be chosen – selections will vary in terms of genre and time period but will always involve a female-centric theme and/or be written and/or directed by a woman. Once a month the group will meet to discuss the various aspects of the chosen film. Meetings will be informal and open to any YS Member who has a passion, interest and/or curiosity about movies.

 

Yellow Studio Member RSVP required.
