See below for the exciting 10th Anniversary programme…
With modest beginnings, and a local passion for film, the Hudson Film Festival has attained an international reputation. It’s now known as The BIG little CANADIAN FILM FESTIVAL and the 2025 edition marks 10 years of giving our passionate Festival Experience lovers exciting programs of award winning Canadian films. Drama, Comedy, Thriller, documentary, short, long, French, English – they are all there! And with a bonus of Film Art guests to discuss their work and answer questions.
The big new screen is at the Hudson Village Theatre, a restored historic train station built in 1890. As the Town’s cultural center, it is the perfect intimate venue for film. Over a century many notable inhabitants have walked upon the original floors of the Village Theatre, setting the perfect mood to watch a good movie.
