The traditional outdoor Snowscreen film night kicks off NSI Film Exchange Canadian Film Festival, Feb. 28 at The Forks. Snowscreen is free, but you’ll need cold cash for most other fest events through March 3.

Tickets go on sale today at the Prairie Theatre Exchange Box office (942-5483). Admission is $9.25 for seven features, daily shorts collections and the National Exposure Amateur Movie Contest; $16 for the closing night film — Sarah Polley’s Away From Her — and gala ($9.25 for film only); and $12 for stage interview A Conversation with Sarah Polley, set for 11 a.m. March 3 at the Fort Garry Hotel.

Snowscreen — literally a massive block of snow — features local animators Richard Condie (The Big Snit), Cordell Barker (The Cat Came Back) and National Film Board perennials The Sweater and Log Driver’s Waltz. Relationship drama Who Loves the Sun and zombie flick Fido play at the Globe opening night March 1. March 2 features are Love and Other Dilemmas — featuring Corner Gas stars Gabrielle Miller, Janet Wright and Fred Ewanuick — and mystery That Beautiful Somewhere, starring Roy Dupuis. On March 3, a mentally ill Frenchwoman seeks her missing mother in Sans Elle; documentary Wrath of Gods goes behind the scenes of Sturla Gunnarsson’s Beowulf & Grendel; and Polley presides over Away From Her. Gordon Pinsent stars.

Delegate passes for all films, parties and industry workshops cost $250; daily passes are $75 and single industry event passes cost $25 at NSI (956-7800). See www.nsi-canada.ca.
