Yellow Letters: VIFF 2026

The Vancouver International Film Festival returns for their 45th year this October 1-11 for another curated season celebrating the best in independent, Canadian, documentary, and international shorts and features.


Derya and Aziz, a successful theatre couple based in Ankara, are celebrating the premiere of their latest play when they find themselves targeted by censorious state investigations that upend their lives overnight. Amid mounting pressures, the couple try to hold on to their political convictions. Winner of this year’s Golden Bear, Yellow Letters is a boldly subversive drama and a reminder that state censorship is not only a present threat, but that it can happen anywhere.
