The 2010 Victoria Film Festival runs from Jan. 29 to Feb. 7 at the Capitol 6, Cineplex Odeon, the Fairmont Empress Hotel, Whitebird and other venues. Program guides hit the streets today and the box office is open at 1215 Blanshard st. Tel. 250-389-0444, www.victoriafilmfestival.com.

I've got tickets to see "Vision" about one of my ultimate heroes Hildegard of Bingen. She's been dead hundreds of years but I still go to her writings for comfort and inspiration, and have since I discovered her in my teens. Not too shabby. I'm very very excited to see this film.
