Sorry, no tickets are available.

Tickets to CUFF's April 17 #CanFilmDay screening of GHOSTKEEPER have all been claimed! As with all of our events, a rush line will be in effect for you to get in at the door, based on no-shows. Be there early enough, and you'll likely be able to snag a seat just before the film starts (especially since this one is free!)

Description

For this year's CanFilmDay event, join us on Wednesday, April 16 for a FREE screening of the Winnipeg cult comedy CRIME WAVE! Director, writer, producer & star John Paizs will be in attendance for this special anniversary screening the night before the Calgary Underground Film Festival officially begins.

Sitcom noir, or maybe Tex Avery splatter. Steven desperately wants to be a "colour crime movie writer", but he has trouble with plots until an adoring fan befriends him. Through a series of adventures, and the evil Dr. Jolly, he finds the strength to go on.
