About the Maplewood Film Society
It all began with a conversation among friends, bonding over how much we miss having a movie theater in our town.
We quickly found out we were not alone in this sense of loss, and pulled together an incredible community of like-minded movie lovers in the SoMA region.
Because movies are in Maplewood’s DNA, and have been a part of our history for over 92 years.
