BMFI has a brand-new website!

Bryn Mawr Film Institute is thrilled to announce the launch of its new website, designed by Zero Defect Design. Now it will be easier than ever to check the schedule and learn about our theater's programming, news, membership, film courses, and fundraising. The new site goes live today, June 2, and will appear in your browser within the next twenty-four hours.


Explore BMFI’s new online home, keeping in mind a number of new features:

Calendar. The daily schedule appears under the calendar. Click on a date in the calendar to see all of the films showing that day. Click on the individual film titles for more information about them.

Online Ticketing. Buy tickets to screenings directly from the website through MovieTickets.com. Click the red ticket icon on the right-hand side, which leads to a general page from which you can navigate to the film and show you would like to see. You can also click the showtime for which you would like to buy a ticket.

Film Pages. Each film has its own individual webpage, featuring a description, the show times, and a trailer and review as available. Certain events are highlighted in the ever-changing box at the top of the homepage, and others are highlighted down below. Click on these highlighted events to access detailed information about them. Find the full list of upcoming screenings and events by selecting the drop-down “Films” menu and selecting “films”. Then click on any of the grey links in the resultant list to get to the specialized events pages.
