A good rep: Independent cinemas in Vancouver
This gorgeous building on Seymour near Davie acts as both a theatre and the headquarters for the Vancouver International Film Festival. Priding themselves on bringing in some of the best in international films from festivals around the world, you can expect high quality cinema here that might otherwise never be seen by Vancouverites. Short runs mean you should check their site regularly, but it also means there’s never a shortage of excellent films on offer. Check out their series and lectures as well.
