Instead of a traditional Q&A after the show, members are encouraged to say hello to their seatmates, stick around to chat about the film, and spill out into their local neighborhoods for coffee, dinner, and connection.To make it as accessible as possible, the organization also subsidizes tickets and only charges $5 per person. Membership to the club is free.
