VTFF has deemed it a mission to introduce the best of Turkish Cinema to Vancouver – not only constituting an international platform for Turkish filmmakers to showcase their work, but also to bridge the cultural and artistic gap between Canada and Turkey by bringing together cineastes and cinephiles from both countries.

VTFF features a whopping 29 critically acclaimed titles in its December lineup, 14 of which are directed by Turkish women. Spearheaded by local filmmaker Hakan Burcuoglu, working alongside creative director Linda Gallo, the VTFF invites all Vancouverites to enter the colourful kaleidoscope of Turkish cinema—a cinema in full bloom, witnessing its own renaissance.
