This past weekend, She Does The City attended @ROMToronto’s monthly ROM After Dark event. The evening was complete with live music and performances from DJ Uyarakq, @beatricedeerband, and Quattuu, plenty of yummy food + drink, games and colouring, and full access to the ROM’s exhibits - including a first-look at their newest immersive exhibit: ‘TUSARNITUT! Music Born of the Cold’.

‘TUSARNITUT! Music Born of the Cold’ celebrates Inuit art, culture, and music. ROM visitors can pick up a pair of headphones and listen in on Inuit women throat singing and dancing, with clips and art dating back to the 1950’s. The museum has translated many of the descriptions into Inuktitut.

The exhibit will be at @romtoronto until September 24th. All Indigenous peoples have free access to the ROM. We hope you enjoy it as much as we did!

🎞️🌟Adrian Murray’s ‘Retrograde’ star

🎞️🌟Adrian Murray’s ‘Retrograde’ starring the talented @mollyrebek , is quirky, quiet and thoughtfully explores the tense, awkward, and emotionally volatile moments in mundane everyday life.

‘Retrograde’ is a movie about a woman trying to regain a sense of agency in her life by fighting a traffic ticket, but more than that it’s about finding one’s voice and place in life as a young adult.

“To me, ‘Retrograde’ is all about self-awareness, self-confidence, and perspective. The script is crafted with such nuance and neutrality that it took me at least 5 reads through to decide if Molly was in the right or if she was lying to herself.”

The humour is smart and subtle, the acting understated but impactful, and the noticeably slower pacing allows audiences time for reflection, on both Molly’s predicament and their own comical frustrations.

‘Retrograde’ is now playing in select theatres across Canada.

🎬GREAT FILM ALERT: ‘What’s Love Got To Do W

🎬GREAT FILM ALERT: ‘What’s Love Got To Do With It?’ is an uplifting, emotional, smart, fresh and funny rom-com that asks: where do we find love in today’s fast-paced tech-driven world?
.
.
“The problem with too many options is that there is a tendency for love and romance to feel quite disposable, and for love and sex to become somewhat commodified,” says screenwriter @khanjemima.
.
.
The film stars Lily James as Zoe, an ambitious documentary filmmaker who is shocked to discover that her childhood friend and neighbour, Kaz (Shazad Latif), has decided to allow his parents to help him find a suitable partner.
.
.
‘What’s Love Got To Do With It?’ premiered at TIFF 2022, and received a standing ovation at Roy Thomson Hall - definitely a film you do not want to miss. Now playing in theatres. 🍿
