Toronto Palestine Film Festival

Toronto Palestine Film Festival calls for submissions


The Toronto Palestine Film Festival is now accepting entries for the festival’s second year to be held in September-October 2009. The festival was conceived by Palestine House last year to commemorate the 60th anniversary of the Nakba. This year’s festival will continue to present the extraordinary narrative of a dispossessed people living in exile or under Israeli occupation and will continue to introduce Canadian audiences to the rich variety of Palestinian cinema. 

Toronto Palestine Film Festival seeking entries


The Toronto Palestine Film Festival is now accepting entries for the first annual festival to be held in October 2008.
