#FIRSTLOOK: 2024 TORONTO CHINESE FILM FESTIVAL RUNS OCTOBER 7-11, 2024

The very first edition of the Toronto Chinese Film Festival is taking place from October 7 to 11, 2024 at The Chinese Cultural Center of Greater Toronto in Scarborough. TCFF aims to bridge cultural divides over five nights, celebrating more than just Chinese filmmaking. It is a commitment to nurturing future talent and making Chinese cinema accessible to all in Toronto and beyond.

Imagine the opening night of the festival: a gathering place for dreamers, where the air buzzes with anticipation and the promise of discovery. The Toronto Chinese Film Festival (TCFF) is not just about viewing films; it’s about experiencing the pulsating heart of Chinese culture and creativity. Our short film competition, which culminates in the Audience Choice Award with a $5,000 cash prize, is not merely a contest; it is a celebration of vision and passion. It invites filmmakers to dream big and audiences to be moved, challenged, and inspired.
