The Story of Movies, an innovative educational initiative for middle schools, is the first-ever partnership of filmmakers and educators to create a curriculum that aims to help students better understand and interpret the language of film and visual images.

The goals of The Film Foundation's educational programs:

• Raise awareness of need to protect motion picture history
• Expose new audiences to classic cinema
• Explore social and cultural significance of film
• Understand and interpret the language of film and visual images
• Develop an appreciation and understanding for artistic authorship beyond the film community
• Provide public access to our nation's film treasures.
