Flaherty Seminar Pod Interest Form
The 2023 hybrid seminar will continue to foster an in-depth discourse through global satellite pod locations and a (custom-made) asynchronous platform accompanied by a series of online-only events for gathering, collectively engaging with supplementary materials and discussing. Our goal is for the Pods to be a gathering site of a diverse cross section of participants, much as the seminar itself. This includes former Flaherty participants, Fellows, Trustees, scholars, students, critics, filmmakers of all ages, backgrounds, and inclinations. We are partnering with cinema arts organizations and spaces globally to host the 68th Flaherty Seminar internationally. Approximately five venues worldwide will host in-person Pods where the local cinephile community can gather to watch a Seminar program. Our partner venues will host 20-50 people every evening of the Seminar (June 17-23) to present at least one of the three in-person programs from that day. Our partner hosts will lead post-screening discussions in the spirit of the Seminar. The Flaherty will provide prompts and discussion materials to help guide participants and expand their engagement with the program. If you are part of an organization, space or institution that's interested in hosting a Flaherty Pod in 2023 or 2024, please fill out this form.
