BMO IFFSA Toronto Makes a Grand Return to the Big Screen
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

BMO IFFSA Toronto, the largest South Asian film festival in North America, makes a grand return to in-person festivities this August! This celebration of returning to the BIG SCREEN is led by a screening of Last Film Show by Pan Nalin, a film about cinema that returns us to the excitement of sitting in the darkness and having our childhood sense of magic and innocence brought back to us in the flare of light on the screen.

The other two amazing opening films are Nawazuddin Siddiqui starrer No Land’s Man by Mostafa Sarwar Farooki, and Gurvinder Singh’s Adh Chanani Raat.

In the words of IFFSA Ambassador Anup Singh, “We return to the BIG SCREEN at IFFSA, where
boundless space of cinema once again allows us to expand our body and mind, and we might now as
birds for so long in a cage unfold our unused wings to soar through the enchantments of our earth, and
celebrate ourselves, our endurance and all the little gestures of mutual regard and caring that helped us
live as a community even when we could not sit next to each other during the last two years of Covid in
our lives.”
IFFSA is grateful to its supportive partners including title sponsor BMO Bank of Montreal, Bell Mobility,
Savour Ontario, CBC, Toronto Star, Turkish Airlines, Government of Canada, City of Mississauga, Ontario
Creates, and Telefilm, who help to make the festival’s vision a reality.
