As a mission-based cinema, Film Streams is committed to presenting new and innovative film opportunities that celebrate the medium while expanding appreciation for it as an art form.

Our education program focuses on film literacy and critical thinking, with students learning how to interpret films in a cultural context, empathize with characters in ways beneficial to their own personal development, and analyze film as an art form.

If you?re interested in bringing Film Streams? education initiatives into your school, please contact Rachel Jacobson at rachel@filmstreams.org.

“Now more than ever we need to talk to each other, to listen to each other and understand how we see the world, and cinema is the best medium for doing this.”
