Cinema Politica York University

Cinema Politica @ York University is a social and culture awareness student lead group of filmmakers and scholars who believe in the need for change. We seek to be inclusive, and provide a place and forum for discussion of issues which can be controversial and challenging. We do not claim that we have the answers, but seek to create a space to discuss choice, perspective, and ideologies. We recognize current social movements like BLM, indigenous voices and story sovereignty, and issues such as the state of the natural world, peace studies, labour, and sex and gender politics. At a time when social media tends to separate people into echo chambers, our screenings aim to create a space for divergent voices to meet and communicate. You can find us on Instagram, facebook and X as well!
