Here we are, the festival is drawing to a close. Tonight is the Closing Night Gala and everyone's excited. Tonight's event will be taking place at Eau Claire Market.
From what I understand it will be a similar setup to the Opening Night gala last Thursday night and it should be an fun and exciting event. The closing gala film, which is a presentation of Short Films from filmmakers here in Alberta and will be taking place in the Cineplex Odeon Eau Claire Market.
Cineplex has been a sponsor of the festival over the past few years or so and this is the first year the festival has held gala's at a Cineplex venue.
Tonight we also award the first Mavericks award, a $25,000 dollar grand prize to one of ten filmmakers. The Mavericks Award prize is courtesy of American Express.
However, there's still a full-day of films to go tomorrow. We have a few films playing for the first time tomorrow, a few encores as well. Check the schedule on the Calgary Film.com for full listings - sponsored by Movie Central.
