small is beautiful
Film Forum’s annual giving campaign
“Somewhere between chance and mystery lies imagination,
the only thing that protects our freedom.”
– Luis Buñuel
Great movies are an escape. They are also an immersion: We experience different realities that expand our imaginations, nourish our empathy, and free us to explore the capaciousness of human experience.
At Film Forum, we experience the power of great cinema in the company of fellow movie lovers. As a nonprofit, mission-driven cinema, we can offer this meaningful experience only with the generosity of supporters like you.
Please make a gift to small is beautiful today.
