Toronto Shorts International Film Festival is the largest short film festival in Canada.

Toronto Shorts is a non-profit organization that provides a showcase for the best short films from filmmakers around the world.

We believe that short-form cinema and its creators should have their own premier film festival in Toronto deserving similar recognition given to the feature film.

Toronto Shorts is where films from all genres intersect. The heart of the festival is the quality and scope of extraordinary film programming which consists of a wide spectrum of categories from high to low budget films under 45 minutes.

This Year’s Theme: Cinema: A Mirror of the World

Cinema acts as a powerful mirror of humanity, reflecting social changes, fears, hopes, and the contradictions of our societies throughout the ages. Much more than mere entertainment, it shapes our perception of the world, documents history, and explores the human condition, capturing the complexity of reality.
