Love a good movie and an even better conversation? The Yellow Studio Film Club is a gathering of women who share a love for female-centric stories told on the big screen. Each month brings a new film to explore. Our picks span every genre and era, but they all have one thing in common: they center women’s stories and/or are written or directed by a woman. Once a month, we come together to talk it all through, with our host guiding the conversation through the film’s themes, style, genre and more! Our meetings are relaxed and informal, and every YS Member is welcome. Whether you’re a passionate film buff or simply curious, there’s a seat saved for you.
