Cinema Series

Welcome to our film club, Kanopy Cinema Series, designed to connect faculty, students, and clubs with filmmakers, activists, and experts through a spotlight of Kanopy films. 

Each session we highlight a film meant to encourage discussion and dialogue among faculty and students 


Kanopy is at the Camden International Film Festival, sponsoring students and to attend at the Q&A for NEON’s documentary Seeking Mavis Beacon by Jazmin Jones. It’s a wild ride where two investigators dig deep into the mystery of the Haitian-born cover model of Mavis Beacon Teaches Typing. We expect some thought-provoking chat on digital security, AI, and Black representation as well as tips for students and enthusiasts looking to break into filmmaking.

Check this space for future films coming in the 2024-2025 academic year.
