International Cinema
Dates: Multiple showings weekly, Fall and Winter semesters
Tradition Challenge: Catch a film at International Cinema and see the world without leaving campus.
Opening Windows to the World, One Film at a Time
What started in the 1950s as language professors screening an occasional French or German film on BYU campus has grown into the world's largest and longest-running university foreign film program. Every week, International Cinema screens a rotating lineup of international films, free of charge, in 250 Kimball Tower. You don't need a ticket, just show up.
Films are shown in their original language with subtitles, chosen by humanities and language faculty to expose students to art and cultures from around the globe. Loyal attendees can even earn patches for different "achievements" the more they attend.
