BOULDER, CO — The International Film Series has been an important part of the Colorado film scene since 1941, screening films in 3 theaters on the CU Boulder Campus. Although its primary focus is to bring the communtiy Arthouse and International films (and on occasion,their directors, producers, cast and other key players in the film’s production), every season it brings in 10 or more classics to the big screen to pay homage to our cinematic roots. All screenings are open to the public and cost only $6 per ticket.

99% of our classics are presented in the 35mm format. All features are presented in their correct aspect ratio. Once in a blue moon, we will screen a classic on 16mm or a digital format when no other print is available, but this is always noted. Most films are shown in our 500 seat theater, in the 2k changeover format on our 2 Century SA projectors either by Anthony Vazquez-Hernandez, long time theater operator with over 12 years of projection experience or on a few occasions by our Senior Union Projectionist, John Templeton with over 35 years of experience. The film series is programed by Mr. Pablo Kjolseth, a film expert and historian who grew up in the Boulder area and has programed the series for the past 15 years. Here is the website
