The programming listed on the following Wpages is the result of 364 days of hard work from our dedicated staff, Board, community, and amazing volunteers. Truth be told, as you read this, we’ve already started work for 2016! Our programming team has assembled a diverse selection of the year’s best: Hollywood tales, music docs, Cannes favourites, award winners and world premieres. Vintage snapshots of Kingston in the ‘50s and animated kids’ films less than a day old! India’s monsoons, villains in pig masks, and hockey in Kingston. We truly have it all this year. We’ve broadened our horizons to include multidisciplinary workshops covering interactive gaming, photography, and music, whether on a high budget, low budget, or no budget. KCFF now has 21 feature films, 74 short films, 15 workshops, three awards, an assortment of concerts, receptions, and more special guests than ever! However, all this “new” is complemented by the core programming that has successfully led us to our 15th anniversary year. As usual, you can scope out a new career path during the Breaking In workshop, network at the Filmmakers’ Reception, meet emerging directors, old friends, and of course, enjoy some awesome Canadian cinema.
