"Dear Filmies,

If you haven't been to the Independent Film Screenings at the Centre For The Arts then let me yell you something. You are missing out. Screenings consist of independent short films from Toronto artists as well as others from across Canada. Every type of genre you can imagine and some you've never even heard of before. Some films have screened here first and then gone on to be accepted by festivals and even gone on to awards. But let me digress, this is NOT a competition. It's about being creative. It's about showing films. It's about contributing to local and Canadian culture. It's about discussing film in a casual atmosphere. It's about new friends. It's about community. It's about being INCLUSIVE not "exclusive."

Welcome to the Centre For The Arts."

*Ilir Pristine and John Boylan founded the Independent Short Film Screenings at the Centre for the Arts in January 2003.

 

Since the Centre opened in January 2003, we have been screening short films on a regular basis. We have screened over five hundred films made by independent filmmakers. The screening is an opportunity to have your work shown, to see the work of others and to meet people with common concerns and aspirations.

We screen films from everywhere such as the Canadian Film Centre, Calling Card, Bravo!FACT, Humber College, York University, Ryerson University, Sherridan College and more. There is a Queston & Answer period after the screenings with directors, cast and crew.

Film submissions are always welcome!
