Community Bioskop Screenings

  • The Biskop Exhibition is a monthly social initiative inclusive of screening local films for people and children in underprivileged communities to enable access to a cinematic experience. We provide free popcorn and a relatable movie for the audience to ensure a full cinematic experience.
  • This program further serves as a social gathering, building community through art, and using art; in this particular instance the medium of film, to foster positive change in society. Contributing social cohesion within our communities.
  • The program further serves as a reimagining of the local film distribution model and making it inclusive.
