It was wonderful working with this film festival. They are responsive and enthusiastic. I was honoured to have Beat Keepers: The Next Chapter recognized for best short film as well. Thank you!

The Toronto & Los Angeles Documentary Festival will always hold a special place in my heart. It’s a platform that truly celebrates the power of storytelling and the beauty of authentic cinema. Having Made in Paradise voted as the BEST NATURE FILM at this incredible festival is an honor beyond words. Thank you for creating a space where filmmakers and their work can thrive.

Thank you Toronto/Los Angeles Documentary Feature & Short Film Festival for the award and selection this year of my short film “Terra Draconis: posterity and prosperity of fossils in the modern age”! It has been an honor to be a part of your festival. I only wish I could have been there in person this year.

The Toronto Documentary Feature and Short Film Festival is absolutely amazing! It gave my short film a lot of opportunities to be screened and to receive audience’s feedback which is the most important aspect for me. I truly recommend to submit to this Festival! Thank you for the caring you had towards my short film!

Great communication from this Festival – they were totally on it! Feedback from audience reviews extremely honest and helpful. I would highly reccommend it. Gabi Lowe Executive Producer of the Documentary “Get Me To 21 – The Jenna Lowe Story”

Benção, Pai (Bless Me, Father), 17min., Brazil
Directed by Ed Lopes
The film follows the story of Antônio (Ed Lopes), a gay evangelical man married to Sandra (Ayala Rossana), an equally devout housewife who lives under the silence and emotional control imposed by her husband. While Antônio brings male sex workers into their home during Sandra’s absence, as she attends religious services, she finds herself trapped in a reality where she has no voice or space to confront the psychological abuse she endures.

TAKE IT OR LEAVE IT, 3min., USA
Directed by Alex Chacon
This music video speaks to the all-too-common matter of people dealing with rejection simply because they have decided to be true to themselves, to be authentic and be who they are. It is a project designed to bring hope, energy and resilience to those who are marginalized and minimized by others who choose to, nor cannot accept them or make any attempt to understand and love them. Our target audience it turns out to be the emerging generations.

CARACAS AVENUE, 92min., Colombia
Directed by Juana Jimenez del toro
Caracas Avenue tells the story of four children in the 1980s who, rejected by their parents for their sexual orientation, are thrown out onto the streets, where they are sexually exploited by a pedophile and begin to commit crimes and engage in prostitution to survive. They dream of traveling to the United States, and amidst their harsh reality, that dream persists. When they arrive in Bogotá, the American dream ends when they are denied visas. The course of their lives takes a drastic turn, and they end up in Bogotá’s red-light district, in the Santafé neighborhood, where they become transvestites. As time passes, their lives take different paths.

When Jane, a mid-career novelist racing a looming deadline, accepts a last-minute dog-sitting stay in a secluded riverside home — the perfect hideout to finish her book, or so she thinks — ordinary moments begin to feel charged with unease. The quiet quickly curdles. A stranger arrives, claiming to be ‘maintenance.’ No phone signal. A river sealed in ice. Footprints in the snow. What starts as a working retreat becomes a tightening psychological trap.

Review by Andie Kay:

This 8:38 second short horror film from Andrew Sully had some amazing cinematography. The location was really beautiful and great for this story. Max Sharam really knew how to set the tone with the music, it was perfect. It gave you that foreboding sense of unease.

Max also wrote the screenplay and the story is quite interesting. It kind of had this “Cabin in the Woods” feel to it. I loved this idea of this film but I wish the filmmakers built up the suspense more, I oddly felt like I was missing pieces of information within the story. I liked the story itself. The breadcrumb trail left to help you figure out what happened was nice.

Plus how can anyone not fall in love with Gemma? She stole the show.
