About this Event
As MOCA Jacksonville celebrates its 100th anniversary, we look back at the last century of artistic expression in film. With a particular focus on films that imagined the future, this year long series explores decade-by-decade, the hopes, anxieties, and dreams of filmmakers and audiences from the 1920s to the present day.
This event takes place during Florida Blue Free Museum Nights at MOCA! Enjoy concessions from the MOCA Bar and Setlan Coffee Co. The museum is open extended hours from 5-9 p.m., so feel free to explore the galleries before or after the films.
This event is free and open to all. Geared to an adult audience, but open to all ages.
SPACE IS LIMITED. REGISTRATION IS REQUIRED.

MAY 15 // A Space Odyssey (1968)
Stanley Kubrick redefined the limits of filmmaking and science fiction in this masterpiece, a contemplation on the nature of humanity, 2001: A Space Odyssey. Stone Age Earth: In the presence of a mysterious black obelisk, pre-humans discover the use of tools--and weapons--violently taking first steps toward intelligence. 1999: On Earth's moon astronauts uncover another mysterious black obelisk. 2001: Between Earth and Jupiter, the spacecraft's intelligent computer makes a mistake that kills most of the human crew--then continues to K*ll to hide its error. Beyond Time: The sole survivor of the journey to Jupiter ascends to the next level of humanity.
Directed by : Stanley Kubrick
Starring : Keir Dullea, Gary Lockwood

JUN 19 // News from Home (1976)
We celebrate the conclusion of A Walk of the Wild Side: '70s New York in the Norman E. Fisher Collection with Chantal Akerman’s unforgettable time capsule of New York City in the 1970s.
Letters from Chantal Akerman’s mother are read over a series of elegantly composed shots of 1976 New York, where our (unseen) filmmaker and protagonist has relocated. Akerman’s unforgettable time capsule of the city is also a gorgeous meditation on urban alienation and personal and familial disconnection.
Directed and Starring: Chantel Akerman
