The Museum’s Margaret Mead Film Festival kicks off on Friday, May 1! This three-day celebration will present storytelling and documentary films from diverse voices near and far.

Some highlights, below:

Friday, May 1, is opening night! Join us for Time and Water. This film follows Andri Snær Magnason as he embarks on a profound exploration of environmental love and mourning. Academy Award nominee Sara Dosa crafts an intimate, transcendent meditation on loss, memory, and the deep time of the natural world—-poetic, urgent, and powerfully human in its confrontation of the climate crisis.

On Saturday, May 2, see The Oldest Person in the World. More than a decade in the making, documentarian Sam Green returns with a charming, deeply felt portrait of the world's oldest living person—a title that changes hands several times over the course of the film. Profiling a succession of record holders, he captures the wit, grit, and humor of extraordinary longevity in a moving reflection on time and a joyful celebration of life.

On Sunday, May 3, Nuisance Bear drops us into northern Canada, where a wandering polar bear becomes a menace to a small town. Winner of the U.S. Documentary Competition Grand Jury Prize at Sundance and directed by Gabriela Osio Vanden and Jack Weisman, the film observes an uneasy coexistence among the bear, the region’s native Inuit community, and a booming tourism economy.
