Maarifa Film Club

The Maarifa Film Club in Nairobi brings people together through the shared experience of cinema, blending storytelling, culture, and conversation. Each month, the club curates screenings that span genres, eras, and continents—from Italian neorealism to East African narratives and contemporary works—fostering an atmosphere where films become more than just entertainment. Screenings are followed by open discussions, where attendees exchange perspectives and reflections in a warm, unhurried setting. Whether you're a dedicated cinephile or simply someone who appreciates a well-told story, the club offers a space to connect, debate, and leave with new insights. Comfortable seating, ambient lighting, and light refreshments create an inviting environment where the magic of film lingers long after the credits roll.
