Lake TahoeLooking for some interesting films to watch during the summer months? The library has a growing collection of independent and foreign films that may do the trick!

If you’re not sure how to find them, here’s an example of how to use subject keywords and a DVD format limiter to browse Catalyst for cool things to watch.

We also have a very interesting collection of independent, foreign, and documentary films called the Video Americain Collection. Sadly, this collection was carefully built over the years by an independent video store in the neighborhood that closed a few years ago. We are honored to house over 1,600 of their amazing films.

Some other movies that may pique your curiosity include those in the Film Movement Series, comprising recent films from the international festival circuit. And, we have a small but amazing collection of films by a distributor called Women Make Movies.

Perhaps you want to view Cannes Film Festival winners or Sundance Film Festival entries – we’ve got ’em. We also have nearly the entire Criterion Collection, a great assortment of classic, ground-breaking films.

Come to the library, check out some DVDs, and enjoy the summer!
