Docu Lovers Club: Discussing great documentaries

ABOUT THE CLUB

If you love great documentaries and want to discuss them with others, we welcome you to our Club. We are a friendly, easy-going group who love to watch documentary films and talk about them. We strive to have engaging and intellectually stimulating discussions. We're here to learn, grow, broaden our horizons and connect with like-minded people. In 2025 we have some more great documentaries to watcha and discuss.

Our Docu Lovers Club will run monthly, online. It's open to all and you're welcome to join our sessions even if you haven't seen the film of the month.

ABOUT THE EVENT

The next documentary on our list is the Emmy-nominated Netflix hit, The Minimalists: Less Is Now. The film focuses on two friends, Joshua Fields Millburn and Ryan Nicodemus, better known as the Minimalists, who demonstrate the benefits of living a minimalist lifestyle. These “sincere prophets of anti-consumerism” (The New Yorker) challenge us, viewers, to live with less stuff.

See you on 26 October, Sunday, 9:00 am PT / 12:00 pm ET / 4:00 pm GMT / 5:00 pm CEDT. You can use this link to check your local time and add the event to your calendar: https://dateful.com/eventlink/1929488985

We're looking forward to connecting and exchanging our opinions, insights, experience and knowledge on the subject of the documentary and everything related. Join the discussion!

Join us with your favorite beverage and bring a friend!
