Post Conference Film Festival

Crossings and Connections Film Festival

We are happy to announce the Crossings and Connections post-conference Film Festival!

Join us as we explore the topic of migration through film on Sunday, June 22, 2025.

Running all day on multiple screens at St. Olaf College, the festival will showcase a diverse selection of films – including dramas, documentaries, and shorts – that illuminate the journeys, challenges, and complexities of migration to, from and within Norway and the United States.

The Crossings and Connections Film Festival seeks to foster dialogue and understanding around the global phenomenon of migration. Through powerful storytelling, the festival aims to amplify the voices of migrants, challenge stereotypes, and connect audiences with human stories. This festival is a platform to inspire meaningful conversations.

Enjoy as many screenings as you like for $10 with conference registration.
On campus lunch is available with advance purchase for $15.

The following films are confirmed (we will add more info here as we confirm screening times and additional films):
