Vancouver International Film Festival
Get ready filmies, the VIFF
kicks off tonight with acclaimed Spanish filmmaker Pedro Almodovar’s The Skin I Live In (which we managed to
wrangle tickets for… very excited, my friends!).
VIFF is the 5th
largest film festival in North America, screening nearly 400 films from 80
countries over 10 screens - roughly
150,000 seats are sold over this 2 week period! The three main programming platforms are East Asian, Canadian
& nonfiction, with both award-winning hits & lesser-known gems. Sometimes, the finest screenings are the ones you know the least about.
