Film series: Campus Collaborations

A man and two children cling to a raft in the middle of the ocean.

Each semester, Cornell Cinema partners with various departments, programs, and organizations to bring to campus films that amplify urgent issues, highlight cutting-edge research, and engage diverse communities. 

These films reflect the varied perspectives and concerns of our Cornell community and create opportunities to expand our thinking through the collective experience of the cinema.

Highlight of the fall semester include a three-part series exploring "The Caribbean: Social Issues, Yesterday and Today" organized by the Latin American and Caribbean Studies Program (LACS), a focus on "Scale" in collaboration with the Society for the Humanities, and a series of films exploring stories of migration with the Migrations Program.

Additional events will be added throughout the semester!
