An East Bay Treasure

Explore cinema from every film-producing country in the world, and from the entire history of film.

The Pacific Film Archives at UC Berkeley presents rare and rediscovered prints of movie classics, new and historic works by the world’s great film directors, restored silent films with live musical accompaniment, thematic retrospectives, and exciting experiments by today’s film and video artists, including provocative, independently made fiction and documentary films.

For less than the cost of a featured film, there is always something interesting or entertaining on their line-up. The September series includes: avant-garde films, Stanley Kubrick, and restored James Dean Classics.

The Pacific Film archive is located in downtown Berkeley at 2575 Bancroft Way, between College and Telegraph. Visit their website for details.
