The Victoria Film Festival embodies the spirit of the cinematic arts on Vancouver Island. We worship cult films, practice wine & beer sacrifices, offer a ritual of initiation for emerging filmmakers, and bring unique artistic voices from Canada and around the world to local screens.

Brive, Inc: Filmmakers In Attendance Q&A
In the shadows of the global oil industry, the Ahsani family ran Unaoil with jet-set style and total impunity. Until journalist Nick McKenzie encountered a whistleblower with enough insider intel to take the whole gang down.
In a manhunt spanning the globe Nick untangles the Ahsanis’ web of deceit and corruption exposing them as the crime family they are. As the plot twists and turns will justice be served? Filmmakers will be in attendance for a Q&A following the screening.
Come see the classic silent film Phantom of the Opera brought to life with live musical accompaniment by art rock band The Invincible Czars. It is a unique way to commemorate the 100th anniversary of this film version of the tale of the deformed Phantom haunting an opera house and trying to make the woman he loves a star.
