The Film Connection has suspended its film-lending operation

The Film Connection has suspended its film-lending operation. We will fulfill requests made through June 4th, 2008. We ask that you return the films in a timely manner once you and your group have watched them.

We are seeking a partner to take over operation of The Film Connection and to maintain its library and its membership. If you would be interested in supporting The Film Connection in this way, please contact site coordinator Lisa Hasko at lhasko@mercycorps.org.

The new Film Connection is live!

Welcome to the Film Connection's new digs! We've migrated our site to a new, open-source platform that's ideal for building online community.

Among the new features we've added are:

  • A hold queue that lets you know where you are in line to receive a film.
  • Bookmarks that allow you to maintain a list of films that you want to remember or want to check out later.
