Film Special: The Batman
2022-12-07 19:00 - 22:30
Together with SG Erasmus, we invite you to our monthly film night on campus. This time we dive into Gotham City with The Batman – following on from SG’s talk on the science behind superheroes.

About the film:For two years, Bruce Wayne has guarded the streets of Gotham City as Batman. He has become a terror to criminals, learning the dark side of the city. With only a few loyal allies in a city where corruption is rampant, the lone hero symbolizes revenge for ordinary citizens. When an assassin sadistically targets Gotham’s elite, a trail of cryptic clues leads Batman to the underworld, where he comes in contact with Selina Kyle/Catwoman, Oswald Cobblepot/the Penguin, Carmine Falcone, and Edward Nashton/the Riddler. As the evidence begins to become clearer, his adversary’s grand plans come to light….

Fortune Dance Performance
2022-12-08 19:30 - 22:30
Club Guy & Roni is coming to town and we are bringing loads and loads of Fortune with us! This time, ESN is presenting a special opportunity to go behind the scenes with the artists of Club Guy & Roni, who will show us the magic of their performances during a meet-and-greet.

But what does Fortune actually mean to you, or to me, or somebody that lives somewhere across the world? In this performance at Theater Rotterdam Schouwburg, our mission became exploring the deeper undertones of the term going beyond all socioeconomic, political, ethnic, spiritual, and religious stereotypes and categorizations.

Join us on the 8th of December at Theater Rotterdam Schouwburg to become part of the experience! Get to know more about the show here!

Film Special: Elvis
2023-02-08 19:00 - 21:30
Together with Studium Generale, we invite you to our monthly film night on campus. This time we will shake those hips with the spectacle film by Baz Luhrmann about the one and only King of Rock ’n Roll: Elvis!

Imagine yourself in the world of The King in this peerlessly colorful biopic from director Baz Luhrmann (Romeo + Juliet, Moulin Rouge & The Great Gatsby). Austin Butler (Golden Globe winner best actor) and his hips convince immediately in this story of the young singer who makes it to rock ‘n roll sex god under pressure from his Dutch manager “Colonel Parker” (Tom Hanks). Elvis feels like one big videoclip to be enjoyed on a big screen.
