The Shadows of the Mind Film Festival is excited to be screening 25 select films from around the world, including two filmed in the Sault, from Feb. 26 to March 4, 2018.

This year’s 19th annual festival will screen seven days of powerful documentaries, award-winning drama and comedies, and spine tingling thrillers. A Gala Reception, live music, enlightening panel discussions, guest appearances, and more are in store for the film lovers of Sault Ste. Marie.

The two films shot locally are Adam MacDonald’s thriller Pyewacket and Michelle Ouellet’s drama, Prodigals. Another film with some Sault roots is Ryan Boyko’s That Never Happened, a largely unknown story about internment camps across Canada.
