Toronto filmmakers to watch at Reelworld Film Festival
Written By Marina Hanna
These are the latest short films by Toronto-based filmmakers who are just breaking out onto the scene, with a couple of exceptions, namely Richard B. Pierre and Alison Duke, who have been making films in Toronto for some time. The others may only have one or two credits on their IMDB page, but remember their names and more importantly watch their films. As my fellow programmer Sameni puts it, “in an industry where most prefer to take a path that has already been experienced, these promising filmmakers are courageous enough to shape their own way of storytelling.”
