We're loving all the #MyFirstCinema memories tonight. There's a special connection to that first place where you sat in the dark and saw the world and it's stories cast across the big screen. What's yours?

Enjoyed this @UCLurbanlab double bill: Bassem Saad’s dystopian vision responds to Lebanon’s ongoing garbage crisis, Sophia Stamatopoulou-Robbins and Ali Aldeek's film explores the politics of waste in occupied Palestine. Looking forward to live Q&A later! dochouse.org/cinema/screenin…

It broke my heart to receive this phone call this lady was lonely & wanted to return to classic cinema club. It’s important we value the need for human contact for many elderly people attending a group is all they have. Community groups offer friendship, company & conversation.
We received a call recently from one of our elderly classic club members who’s missing the films and the company. We really miss our afternoon Classic Cinema and plan to return soon when guidelines allow. youtu.be/wygnNAGHqtM In the meantime please share @AgeUKWB newsletter
