Welcome to the inaugural season of the Indiana University Cinema.
This wonderful new state-of-the-art film venue represents exciting
possibilities for the future of film studies at IU Bloomington, even as it
embodies strong connections to IU Bloomington's longstanding traditions
in the arts.
For decades in this space, University Theatre audiences were inspired to
exercise the power of imagination. They were challenged to think about
the human experience from new perspectives as a wide range of ancient
and contemporary world drama was presented.
So it will be with the IU Cinema.
As units from across the Bloomington campus collaborate with the
cinema to engage student and community audiences through film,
we, as audience members, gain new insight into the world around
us and our souls within.
As an exhibition space for IU film courses, for film festivals and
conferences, and for showcasing our campus's unique film collections,
the IU Cinema is an invaluable complement to the serious study of film
at IU Bloomington.
The unique capacity of cinema to capture reality and to create illusion
can challenge us to contemplate our society, our history, our humanity
in new ways.
The IU Cinema brings us the best of film from around the world, along
with important opportunities to learn about, and through, film.
We hope you will visit often.
