EVERY NIGHT is OPENING NIGHT
EIFF 2013 / PARTICIPATE

 

Teachers!  Bring your students to EIFF...

Interested in exposing your students to cinema produced outside of the Hollywood system? EIFF U is a series of films – feature-length dramas, documentaries and shorts – presented Monday thru Friday as part of the Edmonton International Film Festival. This year marks our 6th presentation of EIFF U... a thought-provoking, relevant series of films specifically aimed at junior and senior high school students. You might also be a group of retirees, or a book club, or ladies who lunch... these films, programmed during the day, might be just the interesting outing you're looking to share with each other.

Film is powerful. It offers up new perspectives on the world. Opens windows to cultures, lives, ideas we may know little about. Understanding makes us better citizens.

DOWNLOAD REGISTRATION FORM!   FILM TITLES will be announced in AUGUST.  If you're interested in receiving an E-MAIL to notify you of schedule, costs, etc., please NOTIFY us with your CONTACT INFORMATION.
