As a non-profit cultural organization, Kelowna Film Society has applied for and been granted an exemption under section 4 of the Motion Picture Act. This exemption allows us to screen films which have not yet been classified by Consumer Protection BC.  Kelowna Film Society is responsible for operating in compliance with the Motion Picture Act and Consumer Protection BC. To attend a Kelowna Film Society film screening (which may not have been classified by Consumer Protection BC), you must be a Kelowna Film Society member.  Your membership is included in the ticket price.The Kelowna Film Society’s past seasons of great cinema have drawn local film fanciers since 2007.  The prestigious Toronto International Film Festival has been the society’s main source of powerful releases from the world of cinema, including foreign language offerings, Canadian films, hard-to-find independent films, quality documentaries, as well as crowd-pleasing comedies, dramas and the occasional block-buster. Helped by many loyal volunteers, the staff of the Orchard Plaza Cineplex, 1876 Cooper Road, Kelowna, and the financial support of discriminating and loyal patrons, the society has supported local film students and film makers with grants, bursaries and other assistance totalling more than $30,000.

Kelowna Film Society Fall 2023 Season

Kelowna Film Society is planning to present 9 interesting films that you will not see in the regular theater lineup for the Fall 2023 Season.  Some films are in another language with subtitles.  Some films are unrated.

EIGHT MOUNTAINS – Co-winner of the Jury prize at the Cannes Film Festival, The Eight Mountains portrays the ebb and flow of a decades-long friendship set in the Italian alps and offers a visually stunning landscape to Paolo Cognetti’s 2016 novel. The peaks, hills and vistas are akin to Pietro and Bruno’s relationship, here depicted with the minutia and expanse of a novelist. Intertwining moments of intimacy with the grandiose of the mountains, this character-driven tale wonders if diverging paths can sometimes cross again.The framing of every shot is exquisite and the sense of place and time, the steepness and prospect of the mountains, the snow and freshnesss of spring are palpable. Sight and Sound; John Bleasdale(Italian with English Subtitles, 2 hours 27 minutes).
