Join us for VIFF Kids Club – our monthly family matinee series with fun film-inspired activities and special concession snacks before the show! Doors open at 11:00 am for activities, with the film screening at 12:00 pm.

This Month’s Film

By popular audience request: Finding Dory is swimming your way! Join everyone’s favorite forgetful blue tang as she sets out to reunite with her forgotten family, guided by memory and hope. Alongside Nemo, Marlin and a few new friends, Dory dives back into the stunning underwater world we all love, discovering the true meaning of family and friendship in this funny, heartfelt adventure.

This Month’s Activities

Before the film gets started, kids will have the opportunity to create their ocean-themed crafts, inspired by the film.

 

Please note: VIFF Kids Club is designed for families to attend together. Adults can only attend if they’re bringing a child, and children can only attend if accompanied by an adult.

Does your family have a film idea for Kids Club? Let our staff know after the movie, or submit your idea online!

 

As a whole, the Finding Dory feels even more accomplished than Finding Nemo, a triumph in it’s own right. Although visually richer, more intelligent and mature than its predecessor, it never loses it’s sense of fun and delivers more laughs then before – sometimes they are down to the flawless script, sometimes they serve as releases of tension, but every single one is spectacularly crafted and beautifully executed.

Also Playing

Desert of Namibia

Dir. Yôko Yamanaka
137 min

A prizewinner at Cannes, Yôko Yamanaka's second film is an acerbic portrait of an arrogant, attractive, diffident, "difficult" 21-year-old woman, Kana (a mesmerizing Yuumi Kawai), who numbly drifts between boyfriends, leaving wreckage in her wake.

Amiko

Dir. Yôko Yamanaka
66 min

Teenage rebel Amiko loves Radiohead but hates everything else about her boring and banal existence -- and her provincial high school above all. Then she meets a boy... The micro-budget debut of 19-year-old Desert of Namibia director Yôko Yamanaka.

Jinpa

Dir. Pema Tseden
87 min

Produced by Wong Kar-wai, Pema Tseden's offbeat fable is part road movie, part Tibetan western, as the fates of two men named Jinpa intertwine and weighty moral questions of karma and compassion hang in the balance.

Moonlight

Dir. Barry Jenkins
142 min

Three chapters in the life of Chiron, a young black man grappling with his identity and sexuality in a rough Miami neighborhood.
