Gimli Film Festival

The Gimli Film Festival is a Canadian film festival, held annually in Gimli, Manitoba. was created to showcase the talents of film-makers from Canada and other countries - to promote excellence and to share with our audience exciting and powerful Canadian and international cinema.

Since 1991, the festival has been screening feature length movies on a 35 foot screen that rises out of Lake Winnipeg. Viewers descend on the beach at sunset with shovels or beach chairs and settle into comfort as movies are shown under the stars and sometimes the northern lights.
