Three rooms
Three separate gatherings, equally at home here.PHI
Philosophy
One big question.
- Philosophy CaféAre we free? What makes a life meaningful? Who is the "I" that is asking?
- How it worksThe question is announced a week before. Everyone speaks, nobody lectures.
CINE
Cinema
Films, together.
- Film TalkOne film, one long conversation. Everyone watches it before we meet.
- ScreeningsSometimes we watch together: open-air, on the beach, on an island.
- Cine-phi DateMatch on film taste, not just looks. A short quiz, games, good company.
Support
Every gathering needs a few friends.
Pattaya Cine-Phi is built by people who care about the mind, big questions and good films. If you'd like to see more of it in Pattaya, a coffee helps.

Questions
Do I need to know a lot about psychology, philosophy or film?
No. Curiosity is enough. Bring your questions, not your credentials.
Do I have to watch the film first?
For Film Talk, yes. We announce the film early. Sometimes we screen it together.
What language do we speak?
English. Everyone is welcome, wherever you are from.
Where and when?
In and around Pattaya. Each gathering's date and venue are announced on Luma.
Does it cost anything?
Details for each gathering, including the venue and any costs, are on its Luma page before you RSVP.
How do I join?
Subscribe to our Luma calendar and RSVP when a gathering opens. Follow us on Instagram for the rest.

House rules
Respect first.- 01Question ideas, not people. Disagree with the thought, never attack the person.
- 02Share the floor. Speak, then listen to understand.
- 03Curiosity over winning. This is not a debate club.
- 04Everyone is welcome. Every nationality, gender, identity and belief.
- 05What's personal stays in the room. A conversation, not therapy.
- 06Phones down. No photos of people without their consent.
- 07No selling, no preaching. Come to share, not to convert.
- 08Spoilers. The announced film is fair game. For other films, ask first.
If something feels off, tell a host
