FilmColumbia 2026

Every fall, the acclaimed FilmColumbia festival previews the best upcoming, soon-to-be released domestic and international films for 10 days at Chatham’s historic Crandell Theatre. This year’s festival runs from October 16 - 25 and will feature 40+ expertly curated films and talkbacks with filmmakers and stars. Many of these films go on to be nominated and win top industry prizes, including the Academy Awards.
