Program 2 has been rescheduled to May 6 at 7pm.
It has been over two years since we last gave you a peek into what our filmmaking members have been working on. With a substantial backlog of Winnipeg independent film treasures to share with you, we present (3) distinct programs’ worth of new short documentary, comedy, experimental, animation, drama, and sci-fi films for your viewing pleasure. The staggering creative output on display in these programs should astonish no one familiar with the local filmmaking community here in Winnipeg, and serves as a reminder of just how lucky we are to have such world class homegrown talent.
