Join us for VIFF Kids Club — our monthly family matinee series with film-inspired crafts 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
A tap-dancing penguin named Mumble can’t sing like the others, but his unique talent may save his colony. Happy Feet is a vibrant, music-filled adventure that celebrates individuality, courage, friendship, and the power of staying true to yourself, and a perfect icy break this summer!
This Month’s Activities
Before the film gets started, kids will have the opportunity to create penguin-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

The Liberation
Haunted by her past, Rita (a magnificent Carrie Coon) is lured to an all-female commune by a magnetic, manipulative spiritual leader (Lily James). An unsettling yet deeply empathetic exploration of personal freedom, devotion, and control.

Tender Loving Care
Mike Leigh’s film depicts the lives of Amy and Rosie, best friends and fellow social workers, who care for the dispossessed with all the strength they have. Sometimes it's funny, tragic, and often it's balancing both, this is a work of humble compassion.
