Comox Valley International Film Festival Coming To Sid Williams Theatre

The Comox Valley International Film Festival is coming up - May 11th to 14th at the Sid Williams Theatre.

Organizers say this year’s event promises to be a must-attend event for lovers of independent film.

As a non-profit organization, the Comox Valley International Film Festival is dedicated to discovering and supporting independent film and media artists from around the world.

The festival introduces audiences to their work in four categories: International Feature film, International Short film, Canadian Short film, and Vancouver Island Short film.

In addition to screening some of the best independent and international films, the festival also offers filmmaking workshops on topics ranging from screenwriting, to exploring the invisible art of emotion and the power of music in film.

These sessions, taught by professionals, provide an opportunity for filmmakers to enhance their skills, giving them the tools they need to bring their powerful stories to life.

The festival will also include networking events, script readings, and a  Filmmaker’s Panel discussing the art of filmmaking.

Festival Executive Director, Stephanie Rossel says by celebrating independent films and bringing people together to share their passion for storytelling, they hope to inspire a new generation of filmmakers to create works that connect us all.
