Dive into the vibrant world of Barbie Land with our Movie Talk about "Barbie" in English! The perfect opportunity to (re-)discover this colourful and surprisingly profound comedy. Together, we will watch selected scenes (in English) and discuss Barbie's journey from her perfect plastic world to the complexities of the real world, the film's witty commentary on identity and feminism, Margot Robbie's charismatic performance, and the clever blend of humour and social critique that have made Barbie a cultural phenomenon. Led by an experienced and film-loving English instructor, the evening is perfect for anyone who enjoys movies, wants to practice their English, or simply meet new people in a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere. While it is helpful to be familiar with the film, it is absolutely not required – selected scenes will be shown to give everyone enough context for a lively discussion. Basic English conversation skills are recommended. Come and join fellow movie fans for a fun and lively discussion – and maybe even discover a new favourite film!
