A New Lens on the World: The TIFF Experience

Introduction

At the heart of the vibrant film landscape, TIFF stands as a beacon of cultural enrichment, operating not for profit but for passion and transformation. Our raison d'être is to reshape the way individuals perceive the globe through the evocative medium of film.

‍

TIFF prides itself in being a melting pot of the finest creations from the corners of Canada and the world beyond. We are a haven where aficionados and creators, regardless of their age or background, can immerse themselves in an eclectic blend of cinematic narratives.

As the pinnacle of cinematic experiences in Canada, we take the lead in orchestrating a myriad of events that span screenings, in-depth discussions, informative lectures, and vibrant festivals. Through these avenues, we facilitate not only entertainment but also learning experiences, opening doors to opportunities where you can rub shoulders and gain insights from renowned filmmakers from Canada and around the globe.

At TIFF, inclusivity isn't just a word; it's our pledge. We stand resolute in our commitment to foster an environment that epitomizes respect, dignity, and fairness. Our approach is holistic, aiming to dismantle physical, social, and financial hindrances that could possibly impede participation. Our goal is clear: to make TIFF's multifaceted programming accessible to all who aspire to be part of it.

We have taken tangible steps towards accessibility by offering amenities that cater to varied needs. From mobility aids that can be booked via a simple phone call to our box office, to assistive listening devices, we have striven to accommodate everyone. Our initiatives extend to providing closed captioning and descriptive sound options, conveniently indicated by CC and DS symbols in our screening schedule.
