MESSAGE FROM TELEFILM<br />
From urban life and dramatic landscapes to inspiring heroes and<br />
personal struggles, all this – and more – makes for distinctive Canadian<br />
storytelling. Fittingly, the <strong>Victoria</strong> <strong>Film</strong> <strong>Festival</strong> has put together a<br />
diverse program of works that spotlights Canada, and other cultures<br />
from around the world.<br />
Part of celebrating outstanding Canadian productions is also<br />
recognizing the talent behind them, and the <strong>Victoria</strong> <strong>Film</strong> <strong>Festival</strong> plays<br />
a valuable role in showcasing Canada’s creators and their productions.<br />
Canadian cinema continues to evolve as an art form that remains vibrant<br />
and alive by relying on the energies and ingenuity of a new generation.<br />
On behalf of the Board of Directors and staff of Telefi lm, I would like<br />
to extend a warm welcome to you and invite you to discover what the<br />
<strong>2008</strong> edition of the <strong>Victoria</strong> <strong>Film</strong> <strong>Festival</strong> has to offer.<br />
Congratulations!<br />
S. Wayne Clarkson<br />
Executive Director, Telefi lm Canada<br />
