Critic-Led Short Film Screening

Come grab a drink, watch six short films, meet the directors and join the conversation! This public screening is Day 2 of SUJET’s Directors’ Accountability Lab, a two-day program built around in-depth film analysis, critique, and conversation. Hosted at Zameen Art House, each screening will be followed by a live discussion led by film critic Carlos Norcia, digging into the filmmakers’ choices, what’s working, what raises questions, and how the films land with an audience. This is not a traditional screening where the credits roll and everyone quietly leaves. The directors will be in the room, ready to discuss their films, answer questions, and hear thoughtful, constructive perspectives from the audience. You do not need to be a professional critic. Bring your curiosity, respect, and genuine interest in cinema. Event details: Sunday, August 23 11:00 AM–2:00 PM Zameen Art House, Vancouver Limited seating. Advance tickets recommended.
