Belmont World Film:
Belmont World Film is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that promotes cross-cultural understanding through the universal language of film. In addition to showing award-winning feature films, documentaries, animation, and shorts from around the world, our screenings feature in-depth discussions led by filmmakers and experts, as well as cultural performances and ethnic cuisine.
Each year we work with local and international organizations to present a Family Festival in January, an international film series in the spring, and other special events throughout the year. Films come from countries from far away as Bhutan, Bolivia, Brazil, Iraq, Latvia, Mongolia and Uganda, and as close as Belgium, Bulgaria, Finland, France, Germany, Italy, The Netherlands, Romania, and the United Kingdom.
Since 2002, Belmont World Film’s Family Film Festival has been a must-attend event for families in the Greater Boston area with children ages 3-12, offering the opportunity to view some of the world’s most significant films for children as they were meant to be seen — on a big screen as a shared experience with others — as well as opening a window into the lives of children in other countries.
