The riverrun Global Film Series

The riverrun Global Film Series The riverrun Global Film Series showcases films that provide a better understanding of our present existence in the globalized networked world.

The riverrun Global Film Series presents a curated selection of quality films that moves beyond national frameworks to account for an increasingly transnational imagination of film production, reception, and distribution. This annual three-day film series runs from Thursday evening through Saturday night at the Burchfield Penney Art Center, Buffalo, NY. The Global Film Series builds on the success of riverrun's continuing Cinegael Buffalo program, which has focused on Irish film since 2004. Aimed at a better understanding of our present existence in the networked world, the series includes two segments: "Country (or Theme) in Focus" and "Film Future." The "Country in Focus" segment investigates a dynamic location in the history of world cinema, with an emphasis on recent globalizing transformations rather than national concerns. The "Film Future" segment examines contemporary films that push the limits of cinematic language and are likely to have a lasting impact on the art of cinema. A film scholar and/or filmmaker will provide context for the focus of each year's series in an opening address. The series is free and open to the public and welcomes film enthusiasts, students, and scholars.
