Belmont World Film (BWF), a 501 (c)(3) nonprofit corporation, promotes cross-cultural understanding through film screenings accompanied by discussions led by expert speakers, cultural performances, and ethnic cuisine. This format distinguishes BWF’s screenings of international feature films, documentaries, animation, and shorts from traditional film presentations. BWF began with the premise that foreign-language film can not only be a vehicle for hearing another language in action, but it can also foster an emotional understanding of other cultures.
BWF presents an annual international film series in the spring, several weekend-long Family Film Festivals, and other special events throughout the year.
