BAFS Kicks off 2023-24 Season with Sundance Favorite!

The Bay Area Film Society is excited to begin our new season by presenting Past Lives which premiered at the Sundance Film Festival in January 2023. Past Lives is a romantic drama written and directed by Celine Strong in her feature directorial debut. Starring Greta Lee, Teo Yoo, and John Magaro, the film follows the relationship between two childhood friends over the course of 24 years, as they contemplate their relationship when they grow apart to have different lives. “Past Lives” is one of those films that feels achingly personal — it’s tapping into the universal feeling of “what if. This film will be presented on Friday, September 29th at the historic Bay Theater in downtown Ashland at 5 & 7:30 pm.

We look forward to welcoming back all of our current members and meeting a new movie-loving audience as well after our summer hiatus. Check back here for more updates as we finalize our fall/winter films. See you at the movies very soon!
