Private Viewing and Discussion. Chinatown

\| **"You may think you know what's going on. In *Chinatown*, certainty is always the first casualty."** Join the Sydney Open Forum for an evening of film viewing and discussion as we explore **Roman Polanski's 1974 neo-noir masterpiece, *Chinatown***. Widely regarded as one of the greatest films ever made, *Chinatown* blends mystery, politics, corruption, greed, and human tragedy into a story that remains as relevant today as when it was first released. We will watch the film together and then open the floor for a wide-ranging discussion. Topics may include: * The film's portrayal of political and corporate corruption. * Water, power, and property speculation as sources of wealth and influence. * The limits of justice and the failure of institutions. * Moral ambiguity and the anti-hero detective * The role of knowledge, deception, and truth. * Why *Chinatown* remains influential fifty years later. Participants are encouraged to share their interpretations, challenge conventional readings, and draw connections between the themes of the film and contemporary social, political, and economic issues. No expertise in cinema is required. Whether you are seeing *Chinatown* for the first time or returning as a longtime admirer, this event is an opportunity to engage in thoughtful conversation with curious, open-minded people. **Come for a classic film. Stay for the discussion.** *“Forget it, Jake. It's Chinatown.”* | **Please arrive on time so we can begin the screening promptly.** Refreshments and venue details will be provided closer to the event date. | | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | |

You Can See Everything (Nathan Fielder, Lance Oppenheim, USA, 2026 film)

Art, Rebellion & Subculture

**Step inside a living piece of art and into an iconic part of Sydney's alternative subculture!** Tonight we explore the relationship between art, rebellion and counterculture. Underground movements have long challenged accepted ideas of art, taste, morality and social convention. They've created new forms of expression, new communities and challenged conventional ways of living. The iconic Hibernian House provides the perfect setting to explore this theme. *To cover the cost of the event we will be asking for a small $ contribution on the night. Food and drink inclusive.* **\*Please only RSVP if you are definitely attending**

**Canceled ** November syd<video> - Last one for 2026

\*\*\*UPDATE TO NOVEMBER EVENT\*\*\* Unfortunately, we’re very sorry to announce that we need to cancel the November Sydney Video Meetup. Following recent announcements, Canva has temporarily closed access to Canva Space, and unfortunately we haven’t been able to secure an alternative venue at such short notice. We’re genuinely sorry for the change of plans and any inconvenience this may cause. We were really looking forward to seeing everyone. We’ll regroup and look at bringing the meetup back in 2027. Thanks for your understanding and continued support! All the best, Jeremy, Adrian, Grégoire and Amy

🎨 **Shake things up and you'll see new colours.** **Please note: She Sees Art is a women-only group and event. Women of all backgrounds are welcome.** Why not mix up your weekend routine by joining like-minded women to explore art, discover new perspectives and enjoy a coffee and good company along the way? We'll start with coffee at **Sol Coffee House** in Haymarket before heading to **4A Centre for Contemporary Asian Art** to explore two exhibitions: **Andy Ewing: Ancestor Spirits** and **Kirthana Selvaraj: In the Half Light**. The exhibitions close in mid-December, so I've added an extra November outing to the calendar rather than waiting for our next monthly event! **ART FOCUS** Contemporary art · Cultural heritage · Identity & belonging · Queer perspectives · The body & personal stories **A NOTE ON THE EXHIBITIONS** These contemporary art exhibitions explore cultural heritage, identity, queerness, sexuality, illness and the body. The works include personal and potentially challenging subject matter. Please feel free to read more about the exhibitions on the [4A website](https://4a.com.au/exhibitions/andy-ewing-ancestor-spirits/) before attending. ⏰ **PLEASE NOTE: THIS EVENT STARTS AT 10:30AM**, a little later than some of our other outings due to museum opening hours. We'll meet for coffee before heading to the gallery at 11:00am. The event will wrap up around 12:00–12:30pm. **WHERE WE'RE GOING** ☕ **Meeting point: SOL Coffee House, Haymarket** 181-187 Hay St, Haymarket NSW 2000 🎨 **Art destination: 4A Centre for Contemporary Asian Art** 181-187 Hay St, Haymarket NSW 2000 **Can't make the coffee? No problem!** You're very welcome to meet us outside 4A at 11:00am. * Women of all ages welcome * No art knowledge required, just curiosity! * Free to attend — exhibition entry is free; everyone pays for their own coffee and food **Coming on your own?** That's completely fine! She Sees Art is about enjoying art and culture together and getting to know other women in a relaxed, welcoming setting. I'll share any final updates, including what I'm wearing so you'll know who to look for, in the Meetup group chat. **Questions?** First time joining us, or have a question about the event? Feel free to email me at sheseesartsydney@gmail.com. I'm happy to help! I can't wait to see you all! 🎨✨ *Cover Image: Andy Ewing: Ancestor Spirits and Kirthana Selvaraj: In the Half Light (installation view), 2026. Photographs by Document Photography.*
