The March calendar for VIFF’s year-round Vancity Theatre has arrived, and this month’s films are dressed to impress. VIFF’s Style in Film series shines a spotlight on those people who demand it: the artists, the designers, the photographers and their muses… The folks who know their true value and aren’t afraid to flaunt it.
While you’re at it, check out the exclusive first runs and documentaries hitting our screen: the unexpectedly touching Oh Lucy!, Samuel Maoz’s Foxtrot (Venice Grand Jury Prize), the febrile and fiendish psychological striptease Double Lover, an anthology of dashcam footage from the roads of Russia in The Road Movie, João Moreira Salles’ bittersweet In the Intense No and the wildly entertaining (and infuriating) expose The China Hustle.
Also on the program, this month is the return of some of the most well-liked films from VIFF 2017, including the exhilarating, immersive documentary Mountain, engaging family dramedy That Trip We Took with Dad and VIFF 2017’s ‘Most Popular Canadian Documentary’ and ‘Must See BC’ winner, Shut Up and Say Something.
Take a moment to kick back, watch the trailers and see what peaks your interest.
