2023 Call for Submission 

Toronto Arab Film Festival, June 2023

​Toronto Arab Film (TAF) is a non-for profit organization dedicated to bringing films from, and about the Arab world, to Toronto audiences. TAF began because of a need to fill a void that exists in film programming in Toronto, specifically a lack of films from the Arab regions and a desire to reinstate a tradition of going out of watch films that has been lost.

With a successful turn out for our second annual film festival in May 2022, we championed Arab filmmakers around the world while upholding safety protocols for everyone involved. We are eager to move forward on to our 4th annual film festival, which will be held in June 2023 in person. 

Submissions are now open. 

Requirements: 
- must have been completed after January 1, 2021
- must be in English, or have English subtitles at the time of submission
- accepted formats: shorts, features, documentaries, fiction, experimental 

Short films will be automatically entered into two competitions: 
  • Audience choice award 
  • Jury Award for most promising filmmaker 
  • Best Canadian Film

Eligible feature films will be entered into competition for the Best Feature Film Award.

Submit via Film Freeway.
