Screening classic “art” films from around the world – with guest speakers, discussions, and lively debate: this is the heart of the Arts for Ohio Cinematheque. Films will be programmed along broad themes, and be representative of global cultures. The very best of classic cinema, underground film, and cult retrospectives will be highlighted throughout the year. As an extension of the annual Athens International Film and Video Festival, the Arts for Ohio Cinematheque aims to be a kind of year-round film festival.
Members of the Ohio University community will introduce each film, and lead a post-screening discussion. Our Cinematheque screenings are designed to offer a unique opportunity for professors and instructors to augment their in-class presentations with outside-the-classroom activities. Our mission: to deepen, broaden, and enliven film culture for both the Ohio University and Athens communities.
