Overview
Following each screening in the Movies Now Course - Your Movie Club course offered by University of Sydney, a special guest will join the group for a discussion designed to help explore the background of each film whilst analysing the themes and cinematic elements. Where possible, the special guests will include the filmmakers themselves.
