Join us for a Lotus Lens Screening showcasing All We Imagine as Light (2024), Payal Kapadia’s tender portrait of contemporary Mumbai. Centered on the lives of two women navigating work, friendship, and longing in a bustling city, the film captures fleeting moments of connection amid urban solitude. This ongoing gathering at Blooms Emporium Chinatown (on the last Thursday of every month) is an invitation to slow down, watch films from Asia and the diaspora, and come together in community through shared viewing and reflection. Each evening will begin with a film screening followed by an optional discussion for those who’d like to stay and reflect together. Blooms Emporium is a small, art-filled space - seating is limited, and guests are encouraged to bring cushions, blankets, or anything else that helps you get comfortable. You’re welcome to bring your own snacks and drinks; options are also available for purchase at the event. Tickets are $15 with additional proceeds supporting Georgia Asylum Immigration Network (GAIN).

Tickets will be available to purchase starting May 1, 2026. Purchase tickets here.
