The Department of Modern Languages recently held the first of their regular ‘Books and film screenings’ events, on Tuesday 29 October.
The aim of this club is to put the fun back into talking about art, culture and ideas, and to provide students with an inclusive and multidisciplinary environment in which to watch, read and discuss a selection of books and films that aren’t part of the academic curriculum. The first event, a screening and wide-ranging discussion (accompanied by pizza and drinks) of Cédric Klapisch’s 2002 film Pot Luck (L’Auberge espagnole), was attended by students from a variety subjects within the School of European Culture and Languages.
The next meeting is planned for Tuesday 25 November at 6pm. Book/film recommendations welcome! Please note that all books/films you recommend must be either in English or readily available in English translation/with English subtitles.
For further information about the club, please contact Tom Baldwin (t.baldwin@kent.ac.uk) or Mathilde Poizat-Amar (M.Poizat-Amar@kent.ac.uk).
