Guide to the 12th Kingston Canadian Film Festival
The 12th annual Kingston Canadian Film Festival is just days away, and I’m struggling to contain my excitement. This year’s festival runs from March 1st until the 4th, and is jam packed with great Canadian films, shorts, workshops and parties where you can network with visiting filmmakers and fellow festival goers. In case you missed, or in the event that you need some suggestions to determine what films to screen, check out our interview with the festival’s Director of Programming, Jason Anderson.
