Canada’s Top Ten Film Festival was established in 2001 by TIFF to honour excellence in short- and feature-length contemporary Canadian cinema, reinforcing TIFF’s commitment to Canadian filmmakers. In order to be eligible for Canada’s Top Ten Film Festival, the film must be directed by a Canadian citizen or resident and have been released commercially or played a major film festival in Canada. The feature- and short-film selections are each chosen by a panel of filmmakers and industry professionals from across Canada.

Canada’s Top Ten Film Festival celebrates and promotes contemporary Canadian cinema and is intended to raise public awareness of Canadian achievements in film.
