OCan is a Film Festival in Ottawa that celebrates Canadian film. Through annual festival screenings at the Bytowne Cinema in November and activities throughout the year, we work to promote Canadian film as distinctive and vital to our country’s culture and the local economy.
We believe in programming and content that provides Ottawa audiences with entertaining and high-quality independent films, information, activities and events. Our annual festival, events, online presence and resources aim to encourage collaboration, artistic innovation and creativity while providing access to a broad audience segment. The Ottawa Canadian Film Festival is committed to cooperation and collaboration with other arts organizations and the business community. Our programs are interactive, entertaining, educational and great value for the money.
Donations, Sponsorships, grants, film submission fees, and proceeds from ticket sales are used to fund exhibition/artist fees that are paid out to filmmakers for the use of their work in our annual festival screenings.
