Saturday June 9 || 3 PM || Neptune Scotiabank Stage Theatre || $10/$12
Every year film festival programmers watch thousands of shorts from all over the world to select what plays at their festivals. HIFF’s visiting programmers will screen some of their favourites and provide a glimpse into the kind of work that is making an impact on the international festival circuit. Guest programmers will be at the screening to introduce the films and answer questions about their respective festivals. HIFF’s 2018 visiting programmers are Curtis Woloschuk (Vancouver International Film Festival), Alejo Franzetti (Berlinale Shorts / Berlin International Film Festival), Gabriela DiNobile (Rhode Island International Film Festival), and Brennan Tilley (Calgary International Film Festival & The Calgary Underground Film Festival).
