The Film Club with Christian Nyampeta

Chritian Nyampeta’s The Film Club is a Pan-African gathering for popular education, film & joyful creative resistance.

Nyampeta convenes The Film Club as an extension of a tradition rooted in Pan-African histories of informal spaces for popular education, film clubs, study circles, and cultural gatherings dedicated to making, developing, and sharing knowledge. Accompanying the production of a new film, The Film Club is organized in collaboration with institutions in Philadelphia, New York, Kigali, and Shanghai, and as part of Nyampeta’s contribution to The Condition of Being Near at ICA Philadelphia.

This program is presented with Fall of Freedom, a nationwide wave of creative resistance to counter fascist repression and censorship with joyful communities of defiant creativity.
