Virtual options will also be available, allowing viewers opportunities to enjoy top-notch movies in the comfort of their homes during 48-hour windows from the time of its in-person premieres. “Whatever you are looking for in terms of films, you will find it at our festival this year,” Marjovsky concluded. “See you at the movies.” FULL SCHEDULE & TRAILERS To view this year’s full schedule, watch film trailers, and purchase tickets, please click here. -30- For all Winnipeg International Film Festival inquiries, please contact: Sheldon Appelle |
