TIFF’s mission is to transform the way people see the world through film. Through our multi-faceted cultural and educational film programming, we stimulate and provoke audiences to challenge perceptions and spark imaginations.
But none of this would be possible without your support.
You make TIFF happen — meaning you make film happen.

We sat down with Jorge Manzano, the first recipient of the TIFF–CBC Diverse Screenwriters Grant, to talk about diversity in the film industry, his script, and what it means to win this prestigious award.

In the spring of 2018, we launched Little Film Lovers, a campaign that aimed to raise funds to support our educational and cultural programmes for children. The response we received from supporters like you was overwhelming. Here, we highlight some of the wonderful movie memories you decided to share with us — and the next generation of film lovers.
Chloe Bhumgara and Nara Wrigglesworth are members of the TIFF Next Wave Committee — a group of young people who curate youth-focused events and screenings throughout the year at TIFF Bell Lightbox.
