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
Kermit and friends reunite to save their old theater from greedy developers. A comedy with Oscar award-winning music and a lot of heart, this joyful family film celebrates friendship, laughter, and working together. Full of nostalgia for the first Muppet movie from 1979, this 2011 film reminds audiences of all ages of the enduring magic of the Muppets!

This Month’s Activities
Before the film gets started, kids will have the opportunity to create puppet-themed crafts, inspired by the film. A special, themed snack pack including candy, small popcorn and small drink, will be available to purchase.

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 Art of Adventure

The unbelievable adventure story of how painter Robert Bateman and ecologist Bristol Foster drove a Land Rover from Africa to Australia in 1957, developing a love of nature to last a lifetime. An inspirational love letter to the adventure of life itself.

Two Strangers Trying Not to Kill Each Other

Dir. Manon Ouimet & Jacob Perlmutter
100 min

This intimate and candid film by a younger husband and wife artist team is a delicate and immensely moving dual portrait of two artists, husband and wife, together and apart, at that point in life when the end casts a shadow over even the sunniest day.

Blue Road - The Edna O'Brien Story

Dir. Sinéad O'Shea
99 min

Judging by this candid, funny, passionate biographical documentary, it would have been a wild ride to have been Irish novelist Edna O'Brien, or even to have been in her circle of friends and lovers. Well, for an hour and a half we can pretend we were.

Do You Love Me

Dir. Lana Daher
75 min

Lana Daher's bravura and defiant non-fiction film is a cultural-historical self-portrait of Beirut, comprised entirely of film clips (many of them from dramatic features, but also from news reports, TV and home video) culled from the last 70 years.
