The Vancouver Film and Television Forum is an annual event produced by the Vancouver International Film Festival in Vancouver, Canada. Held in late September, it is now in its 23rd year.

Overview

The Forum is a four-day event that features panel discussions, master classes, workshops, and meetings geared to the professional development of the Canadian film and television community. It also serves as a platform for delegates to access domestic and global market leaders, share the expertise of international speakers and meet and foster working relationships with their peers.

Each day focuses on a different aspect of the industry, with themes including documentaries, films, television and "new filmmakers". Speakers focus on successful and critically acclaimed film and television productions. Guest speakers have included Marc Forster, Atom Egoyan, Peter Farrelly, Sarah Polley, Stan Lee, Conrad Hall, Doug Liman, Michael Moore, Alexander Payne, Gus Van Sant and Joel H. Cohen.
