The 2024 Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) kicks off on Thursday, September 5, and Editor-in-Chief Alex Heeney will cover it with a series of podcast episodes.

In this episode, Alex introduces the podcast season and explains why this season is for you and whether or not you're attending TIFF this year.

I'll explain what to expect from this podcast season and why TIFF and our coverage are relevant to you if you're interested in exploring world cinema. 

About the TIFF 2024 season:

In the TIFF 2024 season, Editor-in-Chief Alex Heeney will discuss some of the best under-the-radar gems at the 2024 Toronto International Film Festival through themed episodes.

This is for you if:

  • You're attending TIFF and look for recommendations;
  • You're looking ahead to your local film festival for must-see titles; and/or
  • You're interested in how filmmakers from around the world are exploring similar topics/genres, even if you're not sure if you'll ever see the films.
