Welcome to the 2nd annual Comox Valley International Film Festival! We have the privilege of gathering on the Unceded Traditional Territory of the K’ómoks First Nation, the traditional keepers of this land.

We are excited to bring some of the best independent short & feature films from around the world to the valley, as well as offering live script readings, workshops, a filmmaker’s panel, morning coffee talks and evening parties!

CVIFF believes in the power of a good story, and this year’s collection of films truly encompass this belief. Although widely diverse, they carry a common theme. Connection. Connection not only to each other, but with ourselves and our surroundings. They speak to the importance of relationships. Unlikely couples learning to connect, belong, let go, accept and love.

Thank you for supporting local arts and culture. Roll film!
