Cheers Cinema isn’t just a project—it’s a labor of love that began in the summer of 2023. Our goal is both simple and meaningful: to blend the magic of cinema with the craft of mixology. Each event is thoughtfully curated to take you on a sensory journey, featuring cocktails inspired by the films we showcase. What makes it truly unique? We use ingredients sourced from the country where the movie is set, ensuring each drink embodies the essence of its cultural origins. It’s all about creating a one-of-a-kind experience that captivates the senses and celebrates diverse beauty.
Reception starts at 6:00 pm, screening starts at 7:30 pm.
We will screen one short and one feature film from Jordan, followed by a pre-recorded Q&A with THE RED SEA MAKES ME WANNA CRY short film director ” Faris Alrjoob ”
