What is it?
The Cinematic Time Machine: A Feminist Film Club is an online movie club celebrating the movies of yesteryear, but specifically those written, directed, produced by and starring women. We watch a diverse range of classic films and discuss womenās contributions from a feminist perspective.
Our mission is to provide an inclusive space for film enthusiasts to appreciate and recontextualize classic movies through a feminist lens
By showcasing these films and fostering discussions, we aim to bring women's contributions to the cinematic world out of the shadows.
How it works
šæ Once you join the club, one of the first things youāll be asked to do is join the Facebook community, so you can dive in to the chat and access all of the previous months movies and recipes.
šæ Every quarter we pick a genre to enjoy. Currently itās Resistance movies.
šæ And then each month you will receive a movie choice within that genre carefully selected to highlight one of the amazing women who created or starred in it. The pick will come in a pdf format with links to rent/buy online.
šæ A live watch-party for the selection on the last weekend of the month.
šæ A Mid Month Mini which is an extra, movie recommendation, just for fun, in the middle of the month. This time itās a female focused silent short film.
šæ Plus youāll receive recipes for a snack and a drink (both alcoholic and non-alcoholic) to match the movie.
šæ The movie selection and accompanying pdf factsheet and recipe cards will be posted in the community each month as well as emailed to you, so itās introvert friendly too.

What Others Say:
āIt has inspired me to watch classic films on a more regular basis, and Iām discovering new to me films, too. I would recommend it to anyone interested in adding more film viewing to their life, or who wants to learn more about classic films. A community helps make it happen, and is fun, too!ā - HP.
Why is it feminist?
Because I am. I canāt separate my belief in equality from the way I view movies so I figured if I want to watch old films from a more modern perspective there must the others who do too. So why not unite and enjoy it together!
