DOXA Documentary Film Festival and Vij's are teaming up for a fundraising evening of food and film that will be related to the subject of food sustainability in a highly palatable way.

On April 20 at 7 p.m., Vij's owners Vikram Vij and Meeru Dhalwala will be presenting an Indian dinner for guests at Vij's Event Space (at 1488 West 11^th Avenue next to Rangoli, not to be confused with their new Cambie Street location).

Tickets to the event include a welcoming glass of champagne with lentil-potato pakoras, a glass of wine from Road 13, a ticket and membership to the 15^th annual DOXA Documentary Film Festival (which runs from May 5 to 15), and a meal, featuring vegetarian, vegan, and chicken options.

Dishes will include chicken curry, coconut curried vegetables, curried chickpeas, and rice pudding.

Tickets are available in advance (not at the door) and are $79 until April 9 ($89 after that).

The event, which is dedicated to supporting the non-profit DOXA, will be tied into a film at this year's festival about food sustainability (title to be announced after the 2016 festival launch on April 6).
