CMU International Film Festival presents: Faces of Change 2023

March 16th-April 2nd, 2023
Various Locations (see schedule below)

About the Theme

As the COVID-19 pandemic relaxes its grip, unrest destabilizes the status quo, and the rumblings of war threaten new struggle, the world seems to irreversibly change with every headline. Each morning, we wake up to developments that upset our preconceived notions about our place in the world and how it operates, and we continuously change, adapt, and try to make sense of the new, the mysterious, and the challenging. Change — whatever form it takes — constantly shapes our realities. 

Thus, “FACES OF CHANGE”.

Change is integral to how we approach, navigate, and live life, and FACES OF CHANGE seeks to explore the ways it manifests, the anxieties it represents, and the hope it promises. How does change affect us, and how do we, ourselves, change in response to the new? Can we trace change, from the shots heard 'round the world, to the minute ones that affect only the individual? How do we work through change, or resist when it's no longer desired? Through film, and the privileged perspective it grants us, the CMU IFF hopes to answer these questions, and asks all of us to reflect on change, and our relationship with, for, and against it.
