Save the date!! On Friday 13th November, Miya Miya Film Club turns two!! Across two years, Miya Miya has hosted 30 events, and together we've raised and donated over $62K for causes and communities we care about. For our second birthday, we'll be showcasing some of the best new cinema from SWANA filmmakers here in Australia and across the greater SWANA diaspora. From Dharug land to Sudan, Egypt, Morocco, Palestine, Iraq, the UK, Norway and beyond, this is a celebration of stories that speak to the breadth and diversity of our communities. There'll be stories of love, friendship, family, identity, queerness, absurdity, joy and everything in between. Miya Miya exists as a small part of a flourishing Sydney film scene, and this year we're bringing together some of our best friends from across the city to celebrate. Each film will be introduced by a vital member of the Sydney film community, all of whom inspire Miya Miya Film Club in their respective practices, and all of whom continue to champion incredible stories, filmmakers and communities, and make Sydney a better and more creative place every day. And what would a Miya Miya birthday be without food from our faves? @kocagozau will be slinging fresh gözleme, @smeed.almaamoul will be serving cinnamon tea and maamoul, and our favourite Camperdown girls, Eloise and Ivy, will be sharing their incredible homemade cookies. Tickets will be on sale from Tuesday 13th October, with the films announced shortly after. For now, save the date, tell your friends and come celebrate two years of your film club.
