Industry Updates

Hey ConneKt Film Community,

We're thrilled to partner with imagineNATIVE to co-present an unforgettable evening of cinema at TIFF - Thursday, June 4 from 6:15 to 8:15 PM. The night opens with Niimi, a narrative short by Dana Solomon, followed by the feature documentary Walls – Akinni Inuk, directed by Nina Paninnguaq Skydsbjerg and Sofie Rørdam, a raw, intimate portrait of justice, identity, and human connection set inside a Greenlandic prison. Both films centre powerful stories told by women, and together they make for an evening you won't want to miss. Learn more here.

We're also partnering with the Vaughan Film Festival for International Screenings on July 7 & 8 - use code CONNEKT to unlock your tickets here.
