The Contenders Returns to the Hammer

This coming January, the Hammer Museum will once again present The Contenders, The Museum of Modern Art’s renowned exhibition of films. Each year, MoMA’s Department of Film combs through major studio releases and the top film festivals around the world, selecting influential, innovative films made in the last 12 months that they believe will stand the test of time. Whether bound for awards glory or cult classic status, each of these films is a contender for lasting historical significance, and any true cinephile will want to catch them on the big screen. 

Learn more about MoMA's presentation of films, which begin this month. Our screenings, which begin in January, will be announced on our website and social media in the coming weeks. Tickets for the screenings will be available online and on site. Stay tuned!
