2016 Victoria Film Festival Guide Launch & Genre Picks

The Devil’s Horn
Feb 7 * 7:15pm * Odeon 1

The Devil’s Horn, an exciting new film based on Michael Segell’s best-selling book of the same name, will both illuminate and mythologize the 170-year history of the most dangerously seductive (and feared) of all musical instruments—the saxophone.

The film will also insinuate with powerful evidence that those who play the sax will eventually fall prey to the instrument’s longstanding curse and that the saxophone itself has often met near-demise as the victim of persecution and censorship. — Telefilm Canada
