DocJam Coffee Morning ☕ + Optional Documentary: You Can See Everything 🎬

# DocJam Coffee Morning ☕🎬 **☕ Want to join us? Please register on Luma:** 👉 **[https://luma.com/z6qmcgay](https://luma.com/z6qmcgay)** *Please note: Clicking 'Attend' on Meetup doesn't register you on Luma. All event registrations and updates are being managed through Luma to keep everything in one place.* *** Fancy meeting some fellow documentary lovers and filmmakers over a coffee? Come along to **Hackney Picturehouse from 11am on Sunday 22 November** for a relaxed morning of coffee, chats and getting to know each other. Whether you're a filmmaker, thinking about making your first documentary, or just enjoy watching them, everyone's welcome. The idea is simply to bring people together who share an interest in documentaries. A chance to meet new people, exchange ideas, maybe find someone to collaborate with, or just have a nice Sunday morning. **It's free to come along, and there's no formal agenda.** ### 🎬 Fancy watching a documentary afterwards? There's also an optional trip to the cinema at **1pm** to watch *You Can See Everything*. The film follows Elizabeth Holmes, the founder of Theranos, the Silicon Valley company that promised to revolutionise blood testing before collapsing in a huge fraud scandal. ### 🎟️ Film tickets (optional) Tickets are **£16.99**. Not cheap, unfortunately! But the film has been getting rave reviews, with **96% on Rotten Tomatoes**. It's also nearly three hours long, so hopefully worth treating yourself to! If you'd like to come to the film, please book your own ticket. For anyone who wants to sit together, the suggestion is to start from **seat H3**, filling up row H first, then moving to row G and forwards. 👉 **[Book your film ticket here](https://web.picturehouses.com/order/showtimes/010-110094/seats?utm_source=luma)** And of course, **the film is completely optional**. Feel free to come just for coffee and chats, and head off whenever you like. Hope to see you there! **☕ Please remember to register on Luma to attend:** 👉 **[https://luma.com/z6qmcgay](https://luma.com/z6qmcgay)** *** DocJam is a Community Partner of **London Documentary Network**.

You Can See Everything (2026)

It's been ages since there was a documentary sensation like You Can See Everything, which has just been expanded from the ultra-expensive screenings at the posh chain cinemas to the rank and file indies. That includes the massive screen 1 at the Genesis, the biggest cinema screen in East London. Nathan Fielder has become one of the most original and hilarious filmmakers of our time, beginning with fix-your-business TV series [Nathan For You](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h0TRpGP8yH4) and expanding into comedy drama with Emma Stone and Benny Safdie in [The Curse](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=98XP3t5pGx8) and making some of the most extraordinary TV of the past decade with [The Rehearsal](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6CaHP5P4wUc). This three-hour doc, a collaboration with 'Primetime director Lance Oppenheimer, sees Fielder staying with disgraced medtech founder Elizabeth 'Theranos' Holmes and her husband before she goes to jail. Early reports suggest it is amazing and the fact people seem desperate not to spoil it makes me very excited. It isn't often we go to a brand new movie in this group! Trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HvW_N5p1q44 Tickets are under £7 including booking fee and available [here](https://genesis.admit-one.co.uk/tickets/?perfCode=14078). We can meet in the bar at 7pm for a pre-drink and head in afterwards.

Deep Impact (1998)

Please meet on the ground floor of 184 Shepherds Bush Road just before 6pm and we will escort you to the 1st floor where our secret cinema is!

The Alt/Cult Autumn Social

Is autumn getting later with each year or is it just the socials? Either way, the leaves are browning and almost ready to fall, Halloween is on the horizon and that first winter chill is approaching. So, why not stave off the SAD blues by coming out for a few drinks with friends old and new to talk about art, culture, socialising and everything else good in life? The venue this time is one of my favourite pubs in London, the Old Dispensary in Camberwell, the prospect of which seemed to appeal to a lot of people at the summer social. There's a good, vaguely affordable drinks selection, a great atmosphere and potentially even some free live music later on!

Secret Film Screening Series: Border as Method

Join LCC for the first screening in **Border as Method**, a six-part series on borders, bordering, and borderlands. Taking up Mezzadra and Neilson's provocation that "the border has inscribed itself at the center of contemporary experience," the series asks us to think beyond the border as a line between two sovereign states. Across six films, we will encounter the border in multiple material and discursive forms. Each film in the series will build on questions raised by the last, followed by an open discussion. **The films themselves are secret.** We won’t publish the titles in advance, but guesses are welcome. Our third screening is a double feature! A short video essay about Morocco-Spain border crossings is followed by a 1960s film about a Senegalese woman who moves to France to work in the home of a white couple. Looking forward to meeting you and hearing your thoughts. _ Please note, we are committed to making every one of our events welcoming and safe for everybody. Our spaces are non-partisan, but not apolitical. Racism, sexism, antisemitism, classism, forms of discrimination based on sexual preference or gender identity are not tolerated.

Film Jam Screening & In Conversation with Ajit Mann

Film Jam short films, filmmaker conversations and creative connections — featuring an in-conversation Q&A with filmmaker Ajit Mann. Come along for an afternoon of independent film, conversation and creative connections. The London Film Jam Sunday Screening is a chance to see what our filmmaking community has been creating, meet fellow filmmakers and creatives, catch up with old friends and make some new connections. ### **🎥 1 Month Film Jam Premieres** We’ll be premiering the latest films from our **1 Month Film Jam**, created around this month’s theme, **Childhood Memory**.

Come along, see what they created and support the filmmakers behind the work. ### **In Conversation with Ajit Mann** This month, we’ll also be joined by independent filmmaker **Ajit Mann** for a special In Conversation and audience Q&A. We’ll be talking about the **realities and challenges of independent filmmaking** — the obstacles Ajit has faced along the way, how he has overcome them, creating your own opportunities and what he has learned through the process. There’ll also be an opportunity to **ask Ajit your own questions** about filmmaking and his experiences in the industry. ### **🎬 Meet. Watch. Connect.** There’ll be plenty of time to mingle, talk films, meet other filmmakers and creatives and build new creative connections. **Doors open at 12pm.

The Lord Mayor's Show!

Come along on Saturday 14th November to see the Lord Mayor's Show! **About the show** The Lord Mayor's Show has floated, rolled, trotted, marched and occasionally fought its way through 800 years of London history, surviving the black death and the blitz in WW2 to arrive in the 21st century as one of the world’s best-loved pageants. Thanks to the ancient and justified concerns of King John (was king from 1199 - 1216), every newly-elected Lord Mayor is required to leave the safety of the City of London, travel upriver to distant Westminster and swear loyalty to the Crown. Over the centuries this inconvenient journey became one of London's favourite rituals. It moved from river barges (down the River Fleet and then down the Thames) to horseback and then into the magnificent State Coach, and around it grew the rowdy and joyful medieval festival that became known as the Lord Mayor's Show! The modern procession is over 3 miles long with 63 floats, 7000 participants, 20 marching bands, 150 horses, 18 carriages and countless vehicles. **Cost** It's free to attend! **Become a Full Member** To become a Full Member (£14 a year), either: \- Pay cash at an event \- Pay via Bank Transfer \(TSB Bank plc\, Sort code: 77\-66\-65\, Account no: 00030809\, Account name: Cultureseekers\) \- Pay via credit card on the day or in advance \([https://pay.sumup.com/b2c/QHZ1Y3UB](https://pay.sumup.com/b2c/QHZ1Y3UB)) \- go to PayPal \- [https://www.paypal.com/uk/](https://www.paypal.com/uk/), then click on 'Pay & Get Paid‘, then click on 'Send Money’, put in the email address: general@cultureseekers.org in the 'Send Money' box, then 'Next' and then enter the amount to pay.

Please note, we only wait outside the station for 10 minutes after the advertised meeting time, so please be early or on time.
