“Not everything’s political – of course it is” Blue Jean movie and a panel discussion

The film Blue Jean (UK, 2022, Georgia Oakley) can be seen at Orion cinema.

The film tells about the state of society in the Thatcher era, where it is difficult to be yourself. The film deals with ideologies and sexuality.

After the film, there will be a snack, a discussion and a panel. There will be an interesting discussion about cinema, human rights, the political situation and how these themes are reflected in the municipal and regional elections. Discussion will be conducted in Finnish. 

The event is free of charge. Sign up here.

The movie is in English, but it has Finnish subtitles. The discussion afterwards will be held in Finnish.

The event is organized by Social Democratic Youth, – Women, – Students, SDP Helsinki and SDP Uusimaa.

Unfortunately, Cinema Orion is currently not accessible. We apologize for this and are working to resolve the situation as soon as possible.

The theater has 2 wheelchair spaces located on the balcony, which can be accessed from Eerikinkatu via the building’s stairway. We kindly ask that you inform the theater’s ticket sales in advance (lipunmyynti(at)cinemaorion.fi) if you will be attending a screening in a wheelchair, so we can ensure sufficient staff are present to provide smooth service. Access to the balcony involves using two wheelchair ramps. The lower ramp is 180 cm long with a steep incline (approximately 32 degrees). The upper ramp is 150 cm long with an incline of 21 degrees. The ramps are 70 cm wide. Please arrive with an assistant to ensure smooth use of the ramps. Our staff will assist by opening doors and placing the ramps. The ramps are not suitable for electric wheelchairs. Please note that there is no accessible route to the restrooms located on the lobby side.
