Ovarian Psycos (dir: Kate Trumbull-LaValle, Johanna Sokolowski, 2016, cert n/a) + discussion
The Ovarian Psycos were founded in 2010 as “a refuge for the runaway, the throwaway” in Eastside Los Angeles, this bicycling brigade (don’t call them a gang) of young Latina women has empowered a community beset by domestic abuse and violence. Using art, activism and a freewheeling bicycle based collectivism has transformed the lives of its participants. Following the screening there will be a participatory discussion on how Birmingham’s unfriendly cyclist roads could be similarly transformed.

Thu 14 Jun 7pm at Cafe Ort, Moseley Road, Balsall Heath, Birmingham B12 9AH £3 www.eventbrite.co.uk
