The Forum on Law, Culture & Society is hosting Fordham Law School's 2nd Annual Film Festival, which offers a unique setting for New Yorkers to discuss the way the legal system is portrayed through film and how the themes of justice and injustice inspire the artistic imagination and resonate throughout the broader culture.
“All festival films were chosen because of their connection to legal issues, the legal system, and the moral longings for justice,” said Thane Rosenbaum, director of the Forum on Law, Culture & Society and Fordham's John Whelan Distinguished Lecturer in Law.
The Fordham Law School Film Festival includes six nights of films. Screenings will be followed by discussions led by artists, writers, public intellectuals, and legal professionals.
