B.C. films are no stranger to accolades and prestigious screenings, and this year local productions are upholding #BCFilm’s prestigious reputation at TIFF.
The 49th edition of the Toronto International Film Festival returns September 5-15, 2024, and has announced its full lineup of Galas and Special Presentations. Films with ties to B.C. include:
HERETIC
Scott Beck and Bryan Woods’ HERETIC will be premiering at TIFF. This film was shot in British Columbia.
PAYING FOR IT
Sook-Yin Lee’s PAYING FOR IT is premiering at TIFF. While the film takes place in Toronto, filmmaker, musician, and actor, Sook-Yin Lee hails from Vancouver. PAYING FOR IT connects the past with the present, bringing together Canadian underground artists and innovative cross-generational musicians in a cultural snapshot of turn-of-the-millennium Toronto in Paying For It.
