Movie-based discussion series: Three perspectives on Ukrainian identity

We are proud to announce our movie-based discussion series ” Three perspectives on Ukrainian identity”

The series consists of three movies to be shown in Lymy 10.2, 3.3, 24.3. 

We start from the classic magic realist film that was made in 1965 by a genius, politically repressed director. The plot is based on the novel that tells a “Romeo and Juliet tale” of young Ukrainian Hutsul (ethnic group) lovers trapped on opposite sides of a Carpathian family blood feud. 

This movie will initiate the series of discussions, as this extraordinary piece gives us a chance to understand Ukraine from the perspective of ethnicity and ethnic habits that are still reflected in modern Ukraine.

The screening will start at 19.15

Aperitivo 14: Oma Maa (Jan 27)

A warm welcome to the first Lymy Aperitivo of the year!

Aperitivo is a great chance to start the weekend with some drinks, vegan food and interesting conversations at Lymy. This time we will discuss together with the co-op Oma Maa about food sovereignty, community-supported agriculture and local, sustainable food production.

The discussion starts around 7 pm, and after that the evening continues with hanging out and enjoying food and drinks in a more informal setting till around 10 pm. You’ll also have the chance to taste how sovereign food production tastes!

You are warmly welcome to Lymy to enjoy a wonderful evening!

Lymy 7 Years Party (Nov 25)

Friends, Lymy turns 7 years and is thriving! We would like to celebrate this with all of you who have come together in Lymy: Acting, hiding, scheming, enjoying and sharing the lust for life in common.

Lymy’s 7-years party is on Friday Nov 25, at 18.00-21.00

We have a special request for the groups who use Lymy: we would be happy if you could say some words, a song, or any other performative element of your choice. It can be in relation to Lymy as a space, more broadly on autonomous spaces in Helsinki, or the situation of current political struggles.

Hope to see us many. 

xoxo,
Lymy
