Movie Night 2022
Screening of Unsound and Deafying Gravity
On Tuesday 8th March 5pm-8pm in Week 3 of semester 1 2022 we screened the short film Defying Gravity followed by the movie Unsound.
This event took place as a hybrid event so that people could come and join us on Camperdown Campus and eat food and meet others or watch from the comfort of their home.

Unsound

Q&A
The movies were followed by a short interpreted Q&A with Sam Martin, the director of Deafying Gravity.
Food and Social
For those attending in person, food was served and attendees had the opportunity to socialise and discuss the films.
