“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.”
Education
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.
Beginning in 2008, we will offer a
variety of educational initiatives for area high school students. Focusing
on film literacy and critical thinking, students will learn how to interpret
films in a cultural context, empathize with characters in ways beneficial to
their own mental and emotional stability, and analyze film as an art form.
If you’re interested in becoming a teaching artist, helping us develop our
curriculum, or bringing Film Streams’ education initiatives into your
school, please contact Rachel Jacobson at
