Microcinema International Mission

Microcinema's mission is to curate, exhibit, distribute and promote a new era of emerging and innovate international moving image artists whose deeply personal and culturally relevant works are typically marginalized by the mainstream entertainment industry.

Microcinema fosters this burgeoning culture by curating thoughtful, unique and diverse screening programs, which are exhibited and distributed via alternative venues worldwide. Promotion and dissemination of works through such screenings continues to develop dedicated audiences while creating a necessary dialogue between artists and audiences, worldwide.

Microcinema supports this mission via exhibition-based events, advocacy, education and archiving, as well as by developing infrastructural support for alternative media organizations and venues worldwide. In doing so, Microcinema catalyzes the establishment of an international network of shared moving image programming, resources, information, and equipment.

Microcinema's Independent Exposure is a touring screening program of independent films, videos, and digital art that has been in existence since 1996. Independent Exposure screens the last Friday of every month at the Firestation #3 in Houston. Independent Exposure is also screened worldwide at various microcinemas and alternative venues and festivals around the world. Microcinema has presented the short film, video and digital works of over 750 artists in 37 countries and Antarctica.
