Club DVD Backrooms: All About Lily Chou-Chou (2001)
Description
Club DVD is an event made for film lovers to meet other film lovers in a cosy, relaxed, and fun way! Showcasing indie flicks and forgotten gems in an approachable and friendly space.
Join us for a fun film screening at Eclipse Cinema in Collingwood!
Club DVD Backrooms is a new event format that steps away from our usual structure. No speeches. No breakout groups. Making space for the underground, nonsensical and downright fun. Relax with friends and reconnect with fellow Club DVD goers over drinks and sharing something a little warped.
Hosted and curated by Dayna Di Fulvio, Rory Bay & Bailee Walsh.
