Never under-appreciate a Tuesday. Here are 5 things to do in and around Victoria today, Tuesday February 5th.

States of Play

Come explore 8 different installations at this Victoria Film Festival multimedia exhibition!

Many of the installations feature viewer interaction, like stepping into a projection box, peering under a plinth, moving between “bellowed” walls, and more! One goal of the exhibition is to question the role of audience in the cinema.
