The Toronto Palestine Film Festival (TPFF) was conceived in 2008 to commemorate the 60th anniversary of Al-Nakba. It is a volunteer-run, non-profit organization dedicated to bringing Palestinian cinema, music, cuisine and art to Toronto area audiences.

COVID has had a terrible negative impact on societies around the world – public health, loss of income, stress, even political uncertainty.

But as some organizations struggle to face the COVID constraints, they find new opportunities.

The Toronto Palestine Film Festival (TPFF) is one of them.

“Originally created as a way to bring Palestinian culture to the attention of a Toronto audience, by going on line, the TPFF is now easily available to audiences across Canada (and around the world, too),” notes Dania Majid, responsible for programming and media relations.

However, the films and special events are only available at specific times, so you have to find the event, buy a ticket and then watch it on your own computer or TV screen.

Happy viewing!
