Description

Toronto hosts one of the world's most prestigious film festivals and this year Tom and Azed managed to move off their respective couches and see a few films.  The festival has always been a defining characteristic of Toronto's love affair with movies, which draws huge audiences to see some of the world's least seen artwork. Of course, over the years, TIFF has embraced a more mainstream, commercial approach which has largely obscured the work of independent filmmakers but there is still a strong element of curating films from underserved and underrepresented artists. Join Azed & Tom as they discuss the history of the festival, what they saw this year, and the death of film icon, Robert Redford, who created the world renowned Sundance Film Festival.  A festival of festivals, if you will.
