In fulfilling its mission to bring film history to new audiences, Flicker Alley works with students, educators, and institutions alike in order to provide access to restored editions of classic, silent, avant-garde, and historic films.

Instructors can browse through our extensive catalog, which focuses on the importance and relevance of our international film heritage, and includes titles ranging from landmark documentaries like The Man with the Movie Camera and Nanook of the North, to silent classics like A Trip to the Moon or our Charlie Chaplin collections, while making sure to represent the under-appreciated gems of experimental and world cinema like Early Women Filmmakers: An International Anthology, Los Tallos Amargos (The Bitter Stems), and The Ancient Law.

If you are interested in one-time or short-run public screenings, please visit our Theatrical Page, as we offer public performance rights with customized formats and fees for both institutional and non-institutional venues.
