European Union Film Festival

November 12 - 28, 2021

Welcome to our second very special edition of the European Union Film Festival!

Due to the ongoing concerns caused by now a fading but by no means finished pandemic, the three festival presenters in Canada (in Ottawa, Vancouver, and Toronto), along with the Delegation of the European Union to Canada and the EU Member States, have decided to bring you another exciting virtual version of the EUFF in November 2021.

For the second—and hopefully final—time in the long history of the EUFF, we are presenting our Festival online and, also like last year’s edition, making it available not only in Ottawa, Vancouver, and Toronto, but all across Canada! Once again this year we ask you to please tell everyone you know – from Victoria to Iqaluit to St. John’s – to come to the EUFF.

Many of the greatest names in the history of world cinema have been represented over the decades of this extraordinary event. This year is no exception, as we are showcasing both brilliant emerging talents as well as the latest work of master filmmakers. There is drama, comedy, action, and documentary; something for everyone!

As we did at the 2020 edition, we are adding recorded interviews with filmmakers to many of the screenings. While these European filmmakers are not able to be with us in person, they will be with us online to share their artistry and their approaches to filmmaking.

Our three film organizations are proud to work together again to bring you the best in contemporary cinema from the European Union in our second online EUFF. We wish you an eye-opening, thought-provoking, and entertaining European Union Film Festival.

Thank you so much once more for making it happen during this marathon of challenging times with your passionate support.

Vive le cinéma!
