Film Clubs
Film Clubs
Presenting Film Clubs are composed of weekly or bi-weekly movie screenings followed by 15-30 minute discussions led by club volunteers. The focus is placed on films with artistic, entertainment, and educational value, and conversations are structured around building enthusiasm and appreciation for both the technical craft and the cultural value of cinema of all varieties. We aim to make film and its industry exciting and accessible.
