About the film: This year we're partnering with our friends at the Calgary Society of Independent Filmmakers (CSIF) to present a film as part of their annual summer 16mm film series. CSIF has a library of over 2,000 films from the Calgary Public Library, and we've selected a film that CUFF audiences are going to love. The name of the film is disclosed until the screening, but we promise you that this cult classic is the perfect fit with our select location. Be ready for a bit of a scare!
About the location: The Calgary Tennis Club (CTC), the largest outdoor seasonal club in Alberta, originated in 1889 and established a society at its current location in 1912. CTC offers a friendly place to engage in competitive and social play, enhance fitness potential, socialize with active people and bond with family members. Rain plan location – CSIF office (#100, 1725 - 10 Avenue SW).
