The 51 projects — 40 features, six series, and five innovative or immersive works — all looking for production and financing partners, will be presented at the inaugural TIFF industry market.
"The projects, the award-winning talent, and the enthusiasm amongst key decision makers all reflect the emphasis we've placed on closing the loop between the ideas and the investments that fuel our global industry," said the head of the TIFF market, Charles Tremblay. "When projects find the right champions, opportunities become reality and exceptional stories continue to be developed, financed, produced, and shared with audiences across the globe."
The projects represent a cross-section of genres, from dramas and documentaries to animation, with a global reach, featuring producers from Canada to Australia, Brazil to India, the U.S. to Zimbabwe.
After years of informal dealmaking in Toronto, TIFF will launch its first fully fledged content market at next month's event. TIFF: The Market runs alongside the festival from Sept. 10-16.
