propaganda attack on the Jewish people\u201d that \u201cis not consistent with the values of our City and residents (I watched the film).\u201d In another paragraph, Meiner stated, \u201cI am a staunch believer in free speech.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>That same evening, <em>Miami Herald<\/em> reporter Aaron Leibowitz <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/aaron_leib\/status\/1899623153531265209\">shared a

Cinema)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>In an interview with <em>Hyperallergic<\/em>, O Cinema co-founder and documentary filmmaker Kareem Tabsch said that the organization felt blindsided by the threat of losing the space, which has a small film-centric library and cafe as well as a collection of ephemera, making it a unique space for cinephiles in South Florida.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s housed so many films from people of different backgrounds, and we are a community space that intersects with other organizations and brings them onto Miami Beach,\u201d Tabsch said, referencing the theatre\u2019s programming with regional partners like the Southern Circuit Tour of Independent Filmmakers and local organizations like the Miami Film Festival.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>In the past, O Cinema has offered screening series like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.o-cinema.org\/programs\/lift-every-voice\"><em>Lift Every Voice<\/em><\/a>, explicitly aimed at highlighting queer and BIPOC filmmakers in a state that has gained an increasing reputation for far-right and hateful politics.<\/p>\n<p>\u201dI really worry about the reputation of the city,\u201d Tabsch said. \u201cWhat does this say to the international arts community? What happens to the artist who wants to show at Art Basel, or the organizers of Art Basel? Do you really want to be aligned with a city that is known for censoring artists and arts organizations?\u201d<\/p>\n<aside class=\"scaip scaip-3    \">\n\t\t<\/aside>\n<p>\u201cThere\u2019s a huge economic impact that we\u2019re not talking about yet, but this is bad for the community of Miami Beach, it\u2019s bad for the economy,\u201d he continued. \u201cArts and culture is a huge driver of our economy, and artists and art presenters do not take well to censorship.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>This controversy has come at an already busy time, as the theatre is focused on opening a second location in the mainland neighborhood of Little River that would also include spaces for classes and workshops. The South Beach location is currently closed while the screen is replaced, which would be a wasted expense if the mayor is successful in evicting them from their home of more than five years. But Tabsch was insistent that O Cinema wants to stay on Miami Beach and continue to serve this community as well as neighborhoods inland.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Daniel Tilley, legal director at the American Civil Liberties Union of Florida, has already called the mayor\u2019s retaliation \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.axios.com\/local\/miami\/2025\/03\/12\/o-cinema-targeted-by-miami-beach-mayor-over-documentary\">unconstitutional<\/a>.\u201d The proposed resolution to close the theater will be debated at a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.miamidade.gov\/resources\/legal-ads\/municipalities\/miami-beach\/03-03192025-03AVM.pdf\">hybrid commission meeting<\/a> on Wednesday, March 19 at 8:30am, where there will be a chance for public comment, and Mayor Meiner will also hold a virtual town hall on Tuesday at 5:30pm.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Tabsch urged concerned local and national members of the art and film community to make their outrage known to the elected officials involved, and was hopeful that an amicable solution would be found that would allow the theatre to stay in this location.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTo think that we survived a global pandemic and now might be up against a local government that\u2019s just deciding it no longer wants us to operate is crazy,\u201d\u00a0Tabsch told <em>Hyperallergic<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe don\u2019t want to leave,\u201d she continued. \u201cThis is the second theatre we\u2019ve opened in Miami Beach.
