With the university currently on semester break, the executives decided to host a fundraising night to get the members attention off the pages to screens. Moreover, the event was also to raise funds for the association to venture out into the surrounding community to establish literature projects.
With entry to event being free, the members and the general public
were all invited to attend. The audience had the advantage of only purchasing
food and beverages. These included popcorn, hotdogs and soft drinks.
The event kicked off at 5pm Friday 7tth of June, with
members setting up the venue. The Arts Lecture Theatre was transformed into a
cozy cinema, with dimmed lights and a projector up and running.
The night featured back-to-back Science Fiction and Action Comedy
Films. The first film featured Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire 2024 which was
directed by Gil Kenan. This
science-fiction movie follows the story of a group of friends who confront a
supernatural threat in a wintery landscape.
The second film that screened was The Ministry of Ungentlemanly
Warfare, 2024. The film was directed by Guy Richie and packed with action and
comedy. The plot is situated in a fictional happening in World War II, where a
group of unconventional British soldiers undertake a daring mission to disrupt
Nazi supply lines.
The fundraising night not only provided entertainment but also
strengthened community bonds through shared love for literature and cinema.
