It’s time for the 2026 fall season of the Global Film Series! 🎬

We’re kicking it off with @ncsulibraries @ncstatecentennial this Thursday, September 24 at 6:30 p.m. with the Colombian film, “La Suprema” at Hunt Auditorium. Registration is at the link in our bio and tickets are free!

Colombia’s official submission to the Academy Awards, "La Suprema" tells the story of Laureana, a strong-willed teenager who’s not about to conform to what society or her abuela has in store for her. When she finds out that her estranged uncle is days away from fighting in a boxing world championship, she ignites a spark that will quickly get the whole town on board with watching the match live on national television. The problem? It may be the 21st century, but the village has no electricity or a TV set.

The film will be introduced by Dr. Chelsey Dyer, a cultural anthropologist and assistant teaching professor @ncstatechass

What is the Global Film Series you might ask? GFS is a collaborative initiative to bring a variety of international and globally-focused films to our campus. Interdisciplinary partners across campus select films from current releases, documentaries and classics highlighting the joys and struggles of the global community in which we live. These films also provide a venue for faculty and student organizations to share their global experiences and expertise with a wider campus and community audience. All films feature an academic introduction and an opportunity for reflection at the film`s conclusion. Come check it out for yourself!
