If you’ve never attended the Whistler Film Festival you are missing out. Missing out on the opportunity to see the Canadian premiere of soon-to-be-nominated Oscar films. Missing out on meeting A-List actors, directors and screenwriters – and missing out on some of the most enjoyable seminars, workshops and parties around. Proudly sponsored in part by Turner Media Canada, we are already anxiously awaiting next year’s exciting event. Join us!
