The Third Cinema Club is a series of screenings and collective readings by Les Complices* that reimagines the radical legacy of “the third”. It draws on Third Cinema, as articulated by Fernando Solanas and Octavio Getino (1969), which envisioned a revolutionary, anti-colonial cinema positioned outside both the commercial and the individualistic (auteurist art films). Conceived as a feminist and diasporic space of study, witnessing, and imagination, the series invites the audience to watch and read together, creating moments of shared reflection and conversation that move fluidly between film and text. By bringing people together outside both institutional and domestic settings, The Third Cinema Club cultivates practices of solidarity, critical thought, and collective world-making.
in collaboration with DVD night (Center for non-white/BIPOC* Library and Archive): WATCHING MOVIES AS A BLACK* AESTHETIC-POLITICAL IMAGE PROCESSING MOVEMENT.
