The Left Berlin Film Club aims to foster community connections through the collective viewing and critical engagement with political films.
Once a month, we invite a filmmaker for an extended dialogue, or curate a film program that resonates with ongoing concerns and topics of collective inquiry. Our goal is to activate alternative forms of a critical pedagogy and to contribute to an evolving ecology of practices that, as a whole, help us better understand and reflect on our sociopolitical realities.
In this sense, the TLB Film Club is not just another cultural event or a typical art-space screening. Rather, it is a space for engaged learning and for sparking complex dialogues —conversations that have been sidelined, abandoned, or cancelled in mainstream venues.
By embracing the power of images and cinematic forms, we seek to foster a collective critical consciousness from which we can think, imagine, process, and propose together alternative ways of world-making.
Starting in May, The Left Berlin Film Club is moving to a larger venue—Panke Culture in Wedding. The first Event, on Friday 30th May, will include a discussion with a film maker in the West Bank, and show film taken there.
