Stories That Matter

The Johns Hopkins University Bloomberg Center and the Johns Hopkins AAP Graduate Film and Media launched the Stories That Matter film screening series to cultivate robust dialogue among filmmakers, scholars, students, government officials, policy stakeholders, and the public.

The curated program in the Stories That Matter series spans U.S. and international cinema, including narrative features, documentaries, and short films. The series provides filmmakers from the U.S. and around the world the opportunity to present international cinema to D.C. audiences—including stakeholders in the U.S. government, the international diplomatic community, and Johns Hopkins students and alumni—at the Hopkins Bloomberg Center’s 375-seat state-of-the-art theater.

Each event features a post-screening conversation with attending directors, actors, producers, screenwriters, editors, cinematographers, music composers, and documentary participants.
