The Speed Cinema, as part of the Speed Art Museum in Louisville, KY, presents over 270 screenings throughout the year featuring a vibrant program of art house cinema selections including new releases of independent and international cinema presented at major film festivals around the globe, fascinating documentaries, new restorations, family films, collaborations celebrating local and national projects, cross-disciplinary work, internships to mentor the next generation of professionals working in film, and opportunities to connect the ideas of artists on view in the Museum’s galleries.

The program strives to create an engaged audience experience through curatorial introductions, program notes to provide background on the films presented along with suggested viewing and reading, post-screening discussions and panels, and filmmaker presentations. Many of the strong thematic programs are focused on social/racial justice, the environment, the creative process of artists, film history, and how one can learn about the world through the experience of artists. Overall, the Speed Cinema is committed to building a stronger community through film.
