We are seeking a few energetic and detail-oriented people with a passion for films to intern at the Cinematheque starting between June 1st and July 1st 2016 for 6 months to a year or longer.

The intern will assist in event production, programming research, film viewing and managing comp lists for American Cinematheque events.
