Once again we invite you to 'View the world from the Highlands' at the 2ND ANNUAL HALIBURTON INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL (HIFF). Over the course of film festival weekend, participants will enjoy 6 award-winning films, listen to film industry guests, view several short films - including those selected as the BEST OF THE HIGHLAND'S, and enjoy this year's 48-CREATE short films. HIFF passes are just $40 each and give pass holders admission to all film festival events. HIFF passes are transferable, so if you can't get to all of the films, you can share a pass with a friend.

All films will be screened at the Northern Lights Pavilion in Haliburton Village.

Tickets for individual movies will be available for sale at the theatre door before the start of each film and are $8.00 each.
