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.

Possible Love

Lee Chang-dong’s first film since Burning (2018) is a sardonic, slow-burning satire about two couples: a documentary filmmaker married to a wealthy businessman, and a working-class family struggling to make ends meet after the husband has been laid off.

Once Upon a Time in Harlem

Dir. William Greaves, David Greaves
100 min

Once Upon a Time in Harlem splices together footage shot by William Greaves in 1972 of a group of Harlem Renaissance luminaries in conversation at Duke Ellington’s townhouse. The film is a living archive of memory, disagreement, style, and Black genius.
