IEEC Movie Night Recap

On Wednesday the 29th, the IEEC held Movie Night! After two weeks of polls and a choice of 8 movies, Parasite was the winner! This was a great opportunity to relax, enjoy time with friends, meet new people and to eat popcorn! Parasite is an excellent movie with a dramatic and unexpected twist, we would definitely recommend seeing it if you haven’t already watched it!
