In 2010, we celebrate our fifth year with 45 short films, including a panel, our second international screening, a retrospective screening of the top films in our five years, two parties, and a free screening co-presented by the NFB.
Dedicated to showcasing BC’s best shorts, the VSFF organizers are hoping to continue raising awareness for both emerging and established film, video and new media talent throughout the province.
Tickets to the festival are available at the Box Office page. All events take place at the VIFC Vancity Theatre, 1181 Seymour Street & Davie. View their commercial + the Festival schedule after the jump.
