Founded by Milos Stehlik in 1975, Facets is a nonprofit that connects people to independent ideas through transformative film experiences.
Facets is dedicated to creating platforms for thought-provoking films, important conversations, and community-driven education.
A landmark destination for generations of cinephiles, Facets inspires audiences to actively engage with film, not simply as entertainment, but as a tool to bridge cultural divides, promote digital literacy skills, and expand perspectives through empathy-driven storytelling.
Facets presents the Chicago International Children’s Film Festival, the oldest children’s film festival in the Western Hemisphere and the first Oscar-qualifying children’s film festival in the world.
Facets is operated by a dedicated staff who is committed to furthering the mission of the organization.
