International Action Film Festival

WELCOME to Crank International ACTION Film Festival, CANADA'S first and only ACTION film FESTIVAL that celebrates the ADRENALINE-pumping genre of ACTION MOVIES. We believe that action movies are not just mindless ENTERTAINMENT but also POWERFUL EXPRESSIONS of universal themes such as GOOD versus EVIL, HEROISM, and SACRIFICE.

Our festival provides a PLATFORM to showcase and RECOGNIZE the hard work and DEDICATION of the people who make these FILMS POSSIBLE, including the STUNT PERFORMERS who RISK their LIVES to deliver jaw-DROPPING EXPERIENCES.

For many of us, ACTION movies are a LANGUAGE that CONNECTS us to the CHARACTERS and heroes who embody the ARCHETYPE of good and bad. At CRANK, we want to express our love for ACTION on both big and small screens and CREATE a COMMUNITY that CELEBRATES the art of action. Whether you grew up watching action movies or are a new fan, we invite you to join us for an UNFORGETTABLE EXPERIENCE that will allow you to ENJOY the ULTIMATE networking event and CELEBRATION of action films and the PEOPLE who make them.

Get ready to WATCH the most exciting and THRILLING ACTION movies WORLDWIDE,
and experience the SIMILARITIES and DIFFERENCES in the LANGUAGE of action. Our
festival is COMMITTED to providing a DIVERSE SELECTION of films that SHOWCASE
the best of the genre. But that's not all - at CRANK, we're also DEDICATED to helping you
LEARN from the people who MAKE ACTION MOVIES possible. Take part in our action
