Independent Lens is America's home for documentaries. Pickford Film Center is delighted to offer free screenings to classes, groups, and any individual interested in learning something new.
"Our films honor individuals whose determination in the face of challenge reflect major issues impacting our nation and our world," says Lois Vossen, Executive Producer of Independent Lens. "These films are intensely personal and yet speak to universal challenges. They show how there is possibility for progress against even the most intractable challenges, when people come together in hope and purpose."
Independent Lens films have won 27 Emmy Awards, 23 Peabody Awards, eight duPont-Columbia University awards, and have received 10 Academy Award nominations. Independent Lens received the International Documentary Association (IDA) Award for Best Continuing Series in 2013, 2014, 2015, 2017 and 2022.
