Dinner at the Movies: An Event Programmed by Cimatheque - Alternative Film Centre

Start your week by joining us for a night of fun experimentation at Eish & Malh! Come experience an array of shorts, silent films and more contemporary works, alongside a four course dinner tailor-made for the occasion. Dinner at the Movies is an event programmed by Cimatheque - Alternative Film Centre.

The fifth edition of the program will explore personal relationships and the different shapes they take over time. Everything from the sunny, courtship phase, to horrible breakups, marriage, scenes of domesticity, and the kinship between siblings will be presented, through a blend of contrasting cinematic styles and genres. Once again, we will be screening the lesser-known works of renowned figures, such as Buster Keaton's The Love Nest (1923), alongside films from oft-neglected pioneers, such as Lois Weber's Suspense (1913), Alice Guy's Fallen Leaves (1912), and more contemporary works from Egyptian filmmakers, such as Shaymaa Aziz's Love Dance (2011).
