When planning for the 2021 edition got underway in April, there were no assurances there would even be a festival 10 months down the road. “No one really knew how it was going to go, so we made the decision in November to go just online,” Binkowska said. “To do it online and in-person, it would have been like running two festivals.” The virtual “doors” to the festival’s 27th edition will open at 12 p.m. on Friday. There are no scheduled times for screenings; ticket holders can watch the films at their leisure from their homes via computer or TV with the Elevent app (instructions are in the FAQ section of victoriafilmfestival.com.)
