This is a monthly Reading Group on films. We will discuss various films in light of the comments provided by philosophers such as Stanley Cavell, Robert Pippin, George Wilson and some others. The movies are to be seen independently. We will typically meet from 5pm to 7pm the last Friday of the month. This Reading Group is organised in cooperation with Logos and Aresmur.
