Name suggestions for a left wing movie club that still won’t scare off normies? (hexbear.net)

Been running a film night for a few months, mainly documentaries but the odd historical fiction like Battle of Algiers. I’m looking to get a bit more reach for it, maybe do some boosted ads on instagram and stuff.

Does anyone have any good ideas for a name? The best broad appeal I can think of is like “[City] Lefty Film Club” or something lol. Trying to go for something that progressively politically minded people might be interested in attending if they see an ad, make the left wing slant clear, but have a broad appeal.

Hopefully you know at least a couple of people who are your target audience.

You should ask them, not us.

edit: as you are already running it, make an event of it. contest, vote even (if you trust them), something more elaborate/theatrical if the situation is amenable.
