Come to Frankston's funkiest venue for an engaging evening of political cinema, lively discussion, fantastic culinary creations and delicious beverages.

This is the first of a bi-monthly film night presenting independent political cinema from the vast archives of Cinema Politica - a Canadian NGO actively supporting and promoting independent political film from around the globe. Check them out at cinemapolitica.org and start your own!

Outfoxed - Rupert Murdoch's War on Journalism - examines how media empires, led by Rupert Murdoch's Fox News, have been running a "race to the bottom" in television news. This film provides an in-depth look at Fox News and the dangers of ever-enlarging corporations taking control of the public's right to know.

After the film we will be having a discussion about the ramifications of media conglomeration for Australians and the possibilities for positive change.

Hope to see you all there!
