Beat those January blues with the boisterous action sister comedy Polite Society. We’ll kick off the evening with a live set from DJ Anjali, spinning some Arabic, Desi, Filmi & Dembow tunes. Be sure to wear your dancing shoes! 

Polite Society (Film starts at 7pm)
Directed by Nida Manzoor. 2023. 104 minutes. PG-13.

Ria Khan (Priya Kansara) believes she must save her older sister Lena (Ritu Arya) from her impending marriage. After enlisting her friends’ help, she attempts to pull off the most ambitious of all wedding heists in the name of independence and sisterhood.

 

DJ Anjali (DJ set from 6PM – 7PM)
Anjali is a DJ, Dancer and Artist. Her work is primarily concerned with creating a collective memory through songs, dance and imagery while pushing forward a working class, immigrant feminist agenda on the dance floor. As a DJ and dance floor instigator, she has worked to promote the future and vintage sounds of the South Asian and Desi diaspora within the larger Global Bass movement. She moves between two styles of performance, from behind the decks as a DJ to the front of the stage as a Bhangra dancer, all the while exploring her own identity and using the dance floor as a place to build solidarity.
