Tweet Film

TweetFilm is like talking through a film, 140 characters at a time, with no limit to the size of your lounge room. Everyone that wants to take part watches the same film at the same time and live-tweets it.
Join us for viewing and live-tweeting of the modern Aussie classic Looking For Alibrandi, based on the novel by much-loved Sydney author Melina Marchetta. Bring along your phones, laptops and iPads and tweet to your heart’s content using the #tfalibrandi hashtag to connect with your fellow cinema audience members!
If you can’t make it to the screening, you can still join the fun! Just get a copy of the film, start it at the same time as us (8.15 on the dot!) and use #tfalibrandi to connect with us cinema-goers.
