Montclair Film, formerly known as the Montclair Film Festival, connects filmmakers from around the region and world with audiences in a diverse, culturally vibrant community by presenting films and year-round programs that engage, entertain, and educate through the power of visual storytelling. Montclair's programs are designed to promote a greater understanding, awareness, and appreciation of the art of filmmaking and the role that media arts and storytelling play in our community. Montclair Film is becoming widely recognized for celebrating the transformative power of film and providing both a showcase and laboratory for emerging and established filmmakers to create films, share their work, interact with audiences, and network with each other.

Montclair Film is proud to bring together audiences, artists, industry professionals, and actors to share stories and ideas. Montclair programs create conversations between filmmakers and film lovers, and attendees report that post-screening Q&As help to inform, entertain, and change perspectives.
