The 8th Annual Travelling World Community Film Festival, featuring over 30 films,
comes to two Kelowna venues: Okanagan College's KLO campus and UBCO…

Text Box: This year’s lineup includes heartwarming and inspiring stories of people who are positively influencing the world, as well as films that pull no punches on challenging issues such as the impacts of oil and mineral exploration. Topics include the environment, music, arts and culture, food security and water issues, and social justice. Many of the documentaries have won prestigious awards at Film Festivals all over the world. Two films, Burma VJ and Garbage Dreams, were short listed for best documentary for the 2010 Academy Awards. 

 

 

Admission to all films is free, but donations are accepted for the
Kelowna Women’s Resource Center and the Ki-low-na Friendship Centre.

The Festival is also thrilled to be joined by the Kelowna Community Seed Swap which will take place Saturday from 10:00 to 3:00 in the Okanagan College Student centre.

This is a chance to swap and buy seeds and meet people who are enthused about local food production. Healthy food and refreshments, as well as natural goods from local vendors will also be available for purchase.

Programme guides are available at Leos Videos (on Pandosy), the Women’s Resource Centre, and the
Ki-Low-Na Friendship Society (both downtown).

Announcements can be followed on the Travelling World Community Film Festival Facebook Group page.
