Fall Films

The Hop Experiential Learning Fund provides support for classes to attend one live performance AND one film each term! Every quarter Hop Film presents a mix of acclaimed arthouse, foreign language and documentary titles, as well as films with live guests. This term, Malcolm McDowell is coming to campus to accept the Dartmouth Film Award and also participate in a post-film chat after A Clockwork Orange. And filmmaker Jay Craven presents Lost Nation, which interweaves interweaves the stories of two Revolutionary War-era Vermonters: the rebel schemer Ethan Allen and Lucy Terry Prince, a formerly enslaved woman defending her family from local intimidation. 

Many of these films—including the coming of age film Dìdi, Charlie Chaplin's The Kid with live accompaniment, the Sundance hit documentary Sugarcane and the environmental doc Deep Rising–have been curated in collaboration with Dartmouth classes and students' academic interests in mind.

Anticipating the election, we're collaborating with Rocky to present a series of films and discussions unpacking threats to our democracy, from Christian nationalism (God & Country) to a potential reprise of January 6 (War Game) to social isolation (Join or Die). We expect these films and guests to be highly relevant to classes in the GOVT, HIST and SOCY departments in particular.

The highlight of the fall term is the Dartmouth Film & Media Alumni Festival (Nov 7-10), with twenty alumni from across the entertainment industry returning to campus to share their perspective on the role of emerging technology, filmmaking and social impact, new approaches to storytelling and more. The weekend features screenings of new work, panel discussions and more–and students interested in careers that intersect with media will find this weekend an incredible opportunity to network and learn from alumni in the business.
