Location on this date: Keeley Street
Tutors: Katie GossOver six weeks, this Ciné Club will dive into the singular, unsettling world of David Cronenberg - one of modern cinema’s most provocative and visionary directors.
We will explore Cronenberg’s evolution from early body horror classics to his later psychological thrillers, questioning what his work reveals about human nature and our ever-evolving relationship with the body, technology and culture.
Each session will feature a screening of a key film from his filmography, followed by an in-depth discussion examining its central themes, cinematic techniques, cultural and cinematic impact. From the merging of flesh and technoscientific apparatus, to the themes of obsession and transgression, we will see how Cronenberg’s cinema helps us explore the complexities and obscurities of modern life.
