The Campbell River Film Festival Tuesday night presented Timberline and Carihi schools with much needed video equipment for their respective popular media programs.

The presentation was before a near-sell out screening of the movie Foxcatcher at the Tidemark Theatre. Each year the Campbell River Film Festival presents bursaries and equipment to local schools from the money it raises by screening films from a  partnership with the Toronto International Film Festival at the Tidemark Theatre.

There are two more films left in the season, so there is still time to see a good movie and support local students.

On March 3 there will be a screening of a Canadian film called Mommy and on March 10 the festival will screen a popular documentary called Citizen Four. Tickets are available online at www.tidemarktheatre.com
