Nadi Cinema, the Middle East Film Club, screens films from across the Middle East and often beyond. All films – classics, cult favorites, recent hits, comedies, tragedies, political thrillers, social commentaries, and romances, in black-white and living color – are subtitled in English. Screenings are free and open to the public. The series is hosted by Professor Joel Gordon and generally meets bi-weekly. Come see movies the way they were filmed to be screened – in a dark theater with friends and strangers.
