Join us for a screening of Everything Worthwhile is Done with Other People (EWIDWOP) followed by a discussion with the director Rehana Zaman and members of the collective on Saturday May 4th in Kilburn. Doors will open at 2pm with a 3pm start. Capacity is limited so please reserve your spots at the link in bio ASAP.

Shot over the course of five years, EWIDWOP takes up the conversations, experiences and freedom dreams of a group of women affected by the carceral state, as encountered through the UK government’s hostile environment policy and prison system. A collectively authored, polyvocal hybrid film offering a small glimpse into a group’s attempt to connect and form with solidarity and love against punitive contexts that strive to diminish, reduce and disappear.

Rehana Zaman is an artist whose work speaks to notions of kinship and sociality, seeking out possibilities of intimacy and transgression within hostile contexts. Conversation and cooperative methods sit at the heart of her films which extend into texts, performances and group work.

Other Cinemas is a project focused on the transformational power of film; whether that is showcasing the work of Black and non-white filmmakers; creating networks for Black and non-white creatives to work, learn and collaborate; or using film to document the stories of Black and non-white communities. Other Cinemas regularly hosts free film screenings in ways and spaces that serve our communities and also runs an informal film school collective of young Black and non-white filmmakers which seeks to create a real space for conversation and collaboration. Other Cinemas was set up by Arwa Aburawa and Turab Shah, two filmmakers who saw the need for better ways to make and share films.

Please note that a ticket does not guarantee entry. Due to the high percentage of non-attendance for free events in London, we release more tickets than our capacity. On the very rare occasions that we exceed capacity for an event, we have to enact a first come first serve policy, so please arrive on time!
