CinematICA is aimed at encouraging both public and private investment in the future of ICA Cinema and presents a special series of opportunities to include a special monthly public screening in conjunction with directors, writers and actors, high profile gala screenings and opportunities to join cinematic legends past, present and future by 'adopting' a cinema seat.
If, over the course of the ICA's existence, our cinema programming has continually shifted its focus of attention—from French New Wave to the Far East to the Middle East, and from Queer Cinema to politically charged documentary—then this is only a reassuring indication that film at the ICA is continuing to do what it does best: to provide moments of reflection, disquiet, surprise contrasted by pure, dizzying exhilaration.
