We have a completely packed programme for you this month, with two events in the one evening! The excitement!!! ***************************************************** NEW INDEPENDENT FILM CORNER 8.30pm – 10.30pm (£2 entry/ free with Carnivalesque ticket) Having had the pleasure of working with the Movimentos crew at Carnivalesque in September, we are massively excited with what they are bringing to November's gig. In line with the cultural fusion of Carnivalesque, we will be screening the inspirational documentary "The Revolution Will Not Be Televised" at Brighton Coalition just before November's show. The film will be presented by Movimentos and run in association with Brighton Hands Off Venezeula.

Don't put away your dancing shoes just yet, as the Carnivalesque cocktail is just getting shaken up. Often described as "take one part club, mix with two parts live music, add a twist of sideshow theatrics, shake it all up in a burlesque bodice and pour gently over a crowd that's blown its weekend alliance in the fancy dress shop" We have more weird and wonderful entertainment for November than you can shake a saxophone at! Here are some of our delights to lick your lips at…. MARACATU NAO E www.brightonmaracatu.com Having rocked it with us at the Peace Picnic this summer we're proud to have them back; Maracatu are a 25-piece percussion and dance group who perform folkloric styles from North-east Brazil….

A television crew from Ireland's national broadcaster, RTÉ happened to be recording a documentary about Chávez during the events of April 11, 2002. Shifting focus, they followed the events as they occurred. During their filming, the crew recorded images of the events that they say contradict explanations given by Chávez's opposition, the private media, the US State Department, and then White House Press Secretary Ari Fleischer. The documentary says that the coup was the result of a conspiracy between various old guard and anti-Chávez factions within Venezuela and the United States. The pivotal role of the media before and during the coup is highlighted throughout its 75 minutes. MOVIMENTOS Movimientos is an organisation dedicated to the promotion of Latin American culture in the UK and beyond. Through their events they aim to support the musicians, DJs and artists at the forefront of the Latin music scene as well as providing a platform for political/social documentaries on Latin America. http://www.movimientos.org.uk/sitio/ BRIGHTON HANDS OFF VENEZEULA Brighton Hands Off Venezuela defines itself as "supporting the right of the Venezuelan people to decide their own future free from foreign interference." ********************** TICKETS £2 Film Screening Only £6 members & fancy dress £10 on the door available in advance from The Guarana Bar Sign Up as a member HERE and get cheap entrance forever more!!
