Puerto Rico Film Society
The Puerto Rico Film Society is a bridge to underserved communities that do not have immediate exposure to independent films. The Society has partnered with museums, educational institutions and local organizations which provides access to free monthly screenings. Our mission is to encourage and build conversation through independent and international cinema, that brings Puerto Rican audiences together to unite, educate and create dialog around contemporary, cultural and current issues.
