SCREENING ROOMS BY ABSOLUTELY CULTURED:

Absolutely Cultured is partnering with TNBFC to support SCREENING ROOMS - a new artist film programme, offering a space to imagine new futures through cinema and retell histories through the lens of Global Majority artists. In conjunction with their exhibitions programme and wider engagement activity, SCREENING ROOMS will be exploring themes such as family, community, and ecology to celebrate the stories of Global Majority communities and bring new films to the city. This programme will include screenings of Dahomey and Wayfinder, each accompanied by a short film.
