    International Lens, a film series with a global perspective, uses film screenings as a forum to promote conversation among Vanderbilt's diverse community of students, faculty and staff. International Lens strives to transcend geographic, ethnic, religious, linguistic and political boundaries by facilitating conversation and greater cross-cultural understanding through cinema. The series is a partnership between the Office of the Dean of Students and academic departments, centers and programs.
