Chain NYC Film Festival

Chain NYC Film Festival
Tuesday, Aug 12, 2025 at 5:00pm
Chain Theatre
312 W 36th St 4th floor

The Chain NYC Film Festival makes a special effort to curate each block of films by theme or genre. The collective voice of filmmakers from around the world rings out whether in escapist entertainment or heavier themes of the ‘new normal’ in a Covid society, the Black Lives Matter movement, and the continuing pursuit for equality in the LGBTQ community. 

In an effort to continue to highlight these important issues, the Chain will continue their tradition of hosting talk backs with the filmmakers which will be included in the screening blocks.
