FILM DIARY 4: Vancouver Satellite Screening

XINEMA [zin-em-a] is an artist-run experimental film series founded and based on on the traditional, ancestral and unceded territory of the Musqueam, Squamish, and the Tsleil-Waututh Nations (Vancouver, BC). They began operation in VIFF Centre's 41 seat Studio Theatre, with a focus on BC-based and connected media artists, stringing emerging and established artists together into monthly thematic programs.

They now operate between spaces and regions, facilitating screenings, workshops and related events, with a focus on local wherever that may be. Their main priorities are to remain low-barrier, accepting free ongoing and unlimited submissions of any year or premiere status; prioritize underrepresented artists and media forms; and connect filmmakers and film-lovers of various backgrounds, disciplines and career levels.
