Past society events

This is a list of past events held or celebrated by our society between 2018/03/06 and 2018/05/15.

2001: A Space Odyssey

We're gonna go back in time to 1968 and witness one of the most influential science fiction/fantasy films of all time! Directed by Stanley Kubrick who wrote the screenplay with Arthur C. Clarke, 2001 depicts mankind's venture into the unknown brought by the appearance of mysterious monoliths throughout time and space. Filled with breathtaking models and a great selection of classical music, this is an escape into the movie history!Note that due to the long runtime of the film (2-1/2 hours) we would like to start fairly promptly so make sure you've arrived by 7PM.(Further note, we will be watching this of the 50th anniversary of the UK premier of the film).

Your Name

We're doing another collaboration with Anime & Manga Society; and we've decided to try out a relatively new film that isn't Studio Ghibli! 'Your Name' follows the story of Taki and Mitsuha who both long for something more in their lives, but soon they begin to switch bodies! As they try to figure out what's happened to them, they realise that they need to work together to avert an incoming catastrophe!
