5 Ways You Can Help VFF17 Today

We can't wait to welcome you back to North Hollywood for the 17th Annual Valley Film Festival, October 25-29, and are excited to announce that our programming is in full swing, with the Los Angeles Premieres of the documentary, That Never Happened: Canada's First National Internment Operations, produced by Ryan Boyko and Diani Cofini, and the feature film, The Father and The Bear, directed by John Putch, which will open the Festival at Laemmle NoHo7.

But first, we need your help before our fiscal year ends on June 30th.

As a non-profit, we rely on your donations and thank you for making us the longest running film festival in L.A.'s San Fernando Valley, 17 years and counting! Your donation is tax-deductible and 89 cents of every $1.00 goes directly into producing the Festival and our local economy. Please give what you can today so we may continue to showcase independent films from around the corner and around the world.
