The Southeast Asian programme this year has been warmly received, and this is partly due to the enthusiastic response from the local communities here in Toronto for films such as the Philippines' IF I KNEW WHAT YOU SAID and Vietnam's ADRIFT. The local media has also been graciously covering the films. Thank you everyone for coming out and helping to make the screenings a success so far!
Some new articles on the crowdpleasing IF I KNEW WHAT YOU SAID, which has its final TIFF screening tomorrow at 11AM (tickets are still available!). The director and lead actors will be attending:
