Events - 25 Jan 23

Once again Angers’ wonderful First Film Festival is planned for January 2023 (21st to 29th). The Library will be organising groups to go together to the festival – films, readings, talks, you name it! – which allows reduced prices and great company! Along with new European long feature films, classic films will be shown: The Dictator by & with Chaplin, Vertigo by Hitchcock, Gattaca and some special classics which will give a thrill to the daredevils: The Thing by Carpenter, The Shining by Kubrick. There will be avant-premières like Empire of Light by Sam Mendes and The Eternal Daughter. We will also see a couple of 1st European films which are part of the official selection.

Let us know if you are interested in any of these films, which screening before mid-January so we can organise ourselves. For more information about the festival click here.

Come and play (simple) Bridge (cardgame) at the library! Engage in a brain-stimulating sport: the Mini Bridge Exclusive Society. Discover, learn and play Mini Bridge in a relaxed, casual and informal ambiance. Mini Bridge, as developed by MBES allows and encourages

• conversations while playing the game,
• comments and remarks before, during and after the game,
• second thoughts,
• not taking oneself too seriously,

…in a nutshell, MBES (Mini Bridge Exclusive Society) proposes a different concept from the competing conventional Bridge Clubs.

Feel free to sign up and come and discover this new activity for library members! It is free and open to members of the library. Please contact the library to join!
