The 2025 Athena Film Festival is only one month away, running March 6th-9th, and the full film program is now live! Student tickets, now on sale, are just $6, so be sure to grab yours today!
The premiere women’s leadership film festival in the country happens right here on your campus, and we can’t think of a better way to celebrate Women’s History Month than to watch great films centering fierce, fearless, resilient women leaders surrounded by your friends, classmates, and community.
A few film highlights:
Opening Night (Thursday, 3/6) will kick off with a screening of the powerful documentary Satisfied, which follows Broadway star Renée Elise Goldsberry’s journey as she navigates motherhood and her role as Angelica Schuyler in the groundbreaking musical Hamilton.
Friday night (3/7) features include Academy Award-nominated Black Box Diaries, which follows the case that sparked the #MeToo movement in Japan, as well as our centerpiece film, Mrs. Robinson, which explores the life and career of Mary Robinson, a pioneering constitutional lawyer and the first female president of Ireland.
Saturday and Sunday (3/8 and 3/9) will be full days of film screenings, including compelling narrative dramas like Lilly, starring the phenomenal Patricia Clarkson, as well as inspiring documentaries like Spacewoman, which details the journey of Eileen Collins, who became the first female to ever pilot and command NASA’s Space Shuttle.
If you like the look of the entire program, grab your BC/CU student pass for just $30 to gain unlimited access to all films and post-screening conversations.
