Join us for Film Club on Thursday May 28 at 7pm. We will be discussing the selected film, Mistress Dispeller (2020/2024). This documentary film directed by Elizabeth Lo, explores a unique, covert industry in China where professionals, like Teacher Wang, are hired to break up extramarital affairs to save marriages. The film provides an intimate look at the emotional complexities of infidelity and the methods used to dissolve them.

Hosted by Beth Spitalny 

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.
