L’Oréal Paris: Women of Worth

This year, L’Oréal Paris has partnered with the Toronto International Film Festival to celebrate and spotlight female voices in the industry because we believe we’re all worth it. Discover how these five Canadian women pioneers are empowering and inspiring other women in the industry.
