Community Hall / Bay Street A spectacular visual and audio<br />
experience with world class projection and sound equipment on<br />
the big screen at the QC Community Hall. The Banff Mountain Film<br />
Festival screens films from around the world during a nine-day<br />
festival in Banff, Canada. A committee reduces over 360 entries to<br />
approximately 80 finalists, which are showcased and judged by<br />
an international film Jury. A portion of the films, including the top<br />
awards, are toured around the world to various host cities. For the<br />
tour to Haida Gwaii, Banff transports and shows the films with high<br />
definition projection and killer sound equipment on the big screen at<br />
the Queen Charlotte Community Hall. There are two nights of films.<br />
The first night (World Tour) showcases films and shorts from around<br />
the world with a cultural leaning, while the second night (Adrenaline<br />
Sports) shows films about outdoor action sports. This will be the 20th<br />
year that the Charlotte City Cinema Club has hosted the event with all<br />
volunteers. Food, sweets, and soft drinks are available for sale, most<br />
of which are donated by a large group of volunteer bakers. For more<br />
