   Ten Lost Years

   
   

   October 18, 2024 02:30 AM      October 20, 2024 09:00 PM

   Hardship and hope - captured in song and story.   Equal parts despairing and heartwarming, these authentic stories of 1930s Canadians —“from farmyards to highways, from kitchens to boxcars…”—draw you into a rich tapestry of personal narratives from the Great Depression, underscored by evocative folk music. These stories will warm your heart and fill you with a deep sense of appreciation for the indomitable human spirit.   “A complex collage of storytelling and music” – CBC   Ten Lost Years by Jack Winter and Cedric Smith Directed by Glynis Leyshon   Thursday, October 17 2024| 7:30PM
   Friday, October 18 2024| 7:30PM
   Saturday, October 19 2024 | 2PM* 7:30PM

   One Take Super 8

   
   

   October 19, 2024 02:00 AM      October 20, 2024 02:00 AM

   Join us for the world premiere of 22 new analogue movies presented LIVE on celluloid Super 8 film at Metro Studio Theatre!
   The One Take Super 8 is a decentralized network of filmmaking challenges and screenings presented across the globe — since its inception more than 20 years ago it has inspired the creation and screening of over 1000 films in more than 50 locations around the world. CineVic proudly presents the fifth annual Vancouver Island edition of ‘OTS8’ for your local viewing pleasure.
   Earlier this summer, participants from Victoria and the surrounding region were given a camera, a roll of film, and one week to create their own 3-minute Super 8 movie. The only catch: no editing. The filmmakers had to capture their scenes in order with no second chances, and they’ll witness their work for the first time along with the audience at two live screenings!
