The 5th Ottawa Korean Film Festival (OKFF)

2022.09.27 - 2022. 10.10

The Korean Cultural Centre (KCC) is pleased to present the 5th Ottawa Korean Film Festival (OKFF) from Thursday, September 27 to Monday, October 10. The OKFF showcases 11 remarkable Korean features and shorts that share a common theme of ‘Music and Dance’ in a hybrid format this year. We seek to bring humor, hope and joy to people amidst the Covid-19 pandemic through these films which have much to offer through sight and sound.

The OKFF begins its 14-day run with an opening night screening of three short films on September 27 at the KCC. This will be followed by in-person screenings of three feature films at ByTowne Cinema on September 28, September 29, and October 2, respectively, and online screenings from October 1 to October 10. In addition to these film screenings, there will be three live, online Q&A sessions with five film directors on October 4, October 6, and October 7, respectively.
