CWIFF is a quarterly film event that runs with and for various institutions and societies which is specifically created to help independent filmmakers and groups to raise their awareness about the kind of films made in the world.. Not only we run as a Festival but as well provide a means to filmmakers to learn from their seniors from around the world.
BIG NEWS: This is the best Season to submit your film to the festival as CWIFF is hosting a larger-than-life film festival where winners, including all previous seasons, are not only being given entries at a huge discount but as well a dedicated entry to the competitive round. Along with that, all films will be given a chance to be featured on CWIFF's Studio platform for free.
Filmmakers competing in CWIFF are not bound to any condition which requires them not to show their films anywhere else. Rather awarded films will be given priority over others as it being the purpose of our festival to educate through the best (which again is subjective). Still, all decisions will be taken by the jury and they will decide which films be granted submission for the festival.
Today you have the chance to become mentor to many. Submit your film to #CW and become one.
Note:
1. It is the sole right of the festival to select and reject the film they want and the Jury's decision remains confidential always.
2. For any queries, please contact the spokesperson of the festival. Mail is what we personally prefer and quick at.
3. Films on the elderly, children, and women will be awarded separately.

The Toronto International Film Festival (TINFF) invites you to come to enjoy the diversity that brings local and international films, filmmakers, and artists to the beautiful city of Toronto every year.
The objective of TINFF is to be a prominent film festival in Toronto that celebrates the diversity that defines our beautiful city. The primary goal is to advance creative, independent filmmaking through diversity, innovation, and uniqueness by capturing a series of movements and experiences in a single film. We support, screen, and present music and films from around the world in order to help them find an audience and diversify the film industry as a whole.
The festival's programs and activities will initiate programs that address the capacity building of its organizational structure and personnel while also investing heavily in the development of its stakeholder group and providing support for strategic activities that address major challenges and opportunities.
This year's festival and activity projects will include conferences, screenings with Q&A, live music performances, stage plays, and dance, as well as several audience development activities involving workshop training and mentorship programs in various capacities geared toward increasing workforce capacity and putting diversity and inclusion at the center of its annual program and objectives.
The CBDFM Summit:
As part of the annual festival program, the TINFF-Market, also known as the "Canada Black & Diversity Film Market," will focus on business development, providing support to organizations for business-to-business (B2B) industry activities and business-to-consumer (B2C) audience development activities that bring opportunities for new business leads, collaboration, sales, distribution, and relationships.
Our programs and activities will be offered in three phases to ensure effective planning and execution:
• Festival programs will feature, among other things, screenings with Q&A, interviews, conferences, and seminars.
• Workshops and Training, Mentorship, and Masterclasses: Bridging the Gap in Skills Development Programs
• Acquisitions, networking, production collaboration, negotiations, sales, exhibition screenings, meetings (one-on-one or group meetings), and conferences are all part of the Film Market Summit.
Our initiatives, as a creative hub for filmmakers and industry stakeholders, are geared toward developing opportunities for all Canadians and international filmmakers and stakeholders, with a focus on the marginalized Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) groups.
