The 21st edition of the Whistler Film Festival will be presented as a hybrid online and in-person event to connect audiences, filmmakers, and industry with the films we love, industry insights we need and the human connection that we crave. Events include film premieres, industry summits, talent programs, parties and special guest appearances by actors and directors. Plus, there’s always time for skiing, après, fine dining and more.
