Freeze Frame International Film Festival

The Freeze Frame International Film Festival is an annual film festival, which takes place in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada.[1] The festival presents an annual program of children's films, in both English and French, at the Franco-Manitoban Cultural Centre.[2]

The festival was launched in 1996 by filmmaker Pascal Boutroy, soon after he moved to Winnipeg from Montreal.[3] Boutroy remains the festival's artistic director as of 2020.[4]

In addition to film screenings, the festival includes a program of amateur filmmaking workshops for children.[5]
