About

The Screenwriters Club (hosted by The Emotional Club @the.emotional.club) is a space where screenwriters in narrative, documentary, animation, and other screenwriting genres can exchange ideas and build a community while working on their projects. Each week, we meet to work on our writing and grow our connections. The Club hosts free and paid events, providing a space online and in-person for emerging screenwriters to work on their projects for a few hours on Saturdays. 

The club welcomes all kinds of writers and identities, although our main aim is building community and a network among women and queer screenwriters.All participants should have some basic knowledge of screenwriting as this is not a screenwriting course. This screening is cohosted with Joburg Underground (@jhb_under):

Home to the Joburg Underground Film Festival, Joburg Underground is committed to bringing you unconventional low-budget independent cinema from all corners of the globe, in addition to throwing the occasional alternative event.
