FilmEd Features

We offer a select number of field trips during the course of the March Festival. Each trip consists of one feature film and, when possible, a filmmaker Q&A (either in person or virtually). These trips are a great opportunity for schools with dual language programs, but all schools are welcome.

All Festival trips will take place at SVA Theatre in Manhattan and will begin between 10 and 10:30am.
Fee per student is $10 ($5 for Title I students)
