Film

NCMA film programming consists of classic and contemporary short and feature-length films across genres, countries, and languages. The films we show promote diversity, represent the communities we serve, complement the Museum’s exhibitions and collection, and inspire, encourage dialogue, and promote a sense of belonging.
 

NCMA Cinema

The theme of this season is Esse Quam Videri, "To be, rather than to seem." The films highlight journeys artists take to live in a more authentic sense of being—personally and/or creatively.
