Commffest global community film festival

TORONTO, Canada


The 2023 COMMFFEST will celebrate 18 years from September 14-22 2023 screening in movie theatres exhibition spaces, and ONLINE presented yearly by a group of dedicated volunteers. COMMFFEST a charitable corporation makes its home in one of Toronto’s most fast growing, economically diverse neighbourhood, Old Town Toronto, where many languages are spoken amongst an eclectic population.

Our screenplay competitions is spearheaded by 30 year filmmaker, writer, director and producer Vladimir Bondarenko who is an instructor at Toronto Film school,

COMMFFEST is a film festival that presents a broad range of local and international films representing current affairs and relevant issues that affect our society. COMMFFEST provides opportunities for emerging filmmakers, artists, musicians and global community stakeholders to express themselves freely and to connect with audiences on a more personal level. This unique blend of film, filmmakers and audiences creates a dynamic atmosphere to provoke thought and stimulate further understanding and exploration of ideas, attitudes, and emotions that can foster change – starting with the communities in which we live.

FILMS OF ANY GENRES ACCEPTED; independently produced films. Included in that mix are childrens issues, poverty, human rights LGBTQ, women's rights, third world struggles,

The last 18 years Commffest has built a valuable platform for introducing emerging and professional filmmakers to bring together communities, not for profit organizations with government officials in panel discussions to tackle pertinent issues often resulting in more funding and support for these groups.
Commffest is a cultural platform that strives to educate and create a hospitality environment where filmmakers and attendees can mix and mingle over food, drink and entertainment.

TESTIMONY , Eleanor Mc Grath’s
As an independent film-maker, you work often for a year or possibly years to direct, edit, produce a film and then comes the waiting game to be selected by a film festival.

COMMFFEST is more than a community film festival in Toronto; it is an art festival with a world perspective and I am most fortunate to have been part of the 2015 film festival programming with my documentary, "Forgotten". COMMFFEST's vision is to share stories that demonstrate the strength, struggles and beauty of humankind while providing a strong platform for independent film makers to showcase their perspective and vision of our world today and into the future. We need festivals like COMMFFEST who step away from the mainstream and champion works where the viewpoint is critical, enlightened or visionary in their approach to conflicts or issues that prevail throughout Toronto, Canada, North American and worldwide.

Behzad Sedghi Filmmaker
For me, COMMFFEST has been where my films have finally reached their maturity by connecting through the big screen with their audience. It is this connection that is essential for any artistic endeavour. As this may be the case with most other festivals, however, in my direct experience with COMMFFEST I clearly felt that each artist was given special attention, a chance to have a dialogue about their creation and ultimately was embraced in a celebration of their achievement. COMMFFEST founders and organizers are filled with the love of films and arts and clearly possess the vision and generosity to make this celebration happen every year. I look forward to being part of the next celebration either as an artist or a member of its community.

COMMFFEST mission statement:
To advance education by raising the cultural, artistic and aesthetic expression of the community and to advance the public’s appreciation of the arts through related artistic workshops and panel discussions, while promoting the works of filmmakers and artists alike.

The programming: The films are chosen by a jury of professionals from a globally solicited call for submissions. Once chosen, the programming is created to generate discussion around specific world events and themes, provoking dialogue and acceptance of others and their concerns.

More about COMMFFEST
COMMFFEST attracts educators, artists, politicians, business leaders, socially conscious organizations and trendsetters.

Local Educational engagement:
Over 6000 Children from local schools across the GTA that now include the COMMFFEST festival experience as part of their annual curriculum.
COMMFFEST’S unique diversity invites the world to one local community event over several days in Toronto

The Erronka Munduan (Challenge for the World) contest has a different profile than other traditional festivals. We do not have a deadline for audiovisual production, so we give entry to new productions but also others that are already outside the traditional distribution period of other festivals.

OUR OBJETIV is to put filmmakers into action with their contribution to spread messages that attract attention and try to provoke reactions in society that help change the world.

We know that among all filmmakers we have many "human rights" themed audiovisuals that have already had their distribution tour and are now sleeping openly published on YouTube and Vimeo. We want to give them a new life, recover them, to spread them as virally and massively as we can.

Das Filmfest (formerly Oregon State International Film Festival) presents:

The May the 4th Festival is looking for submissions of any length and type to be screened at our one-day festival taking place on - you guessed right - May 4, 2022. Your film should have some connection to the ideas around "May the Fourth be with you" day. We are not associated with Lucasfilm or Disney.

Depending on the quality, length and number of selected submissions, we will screen films by taking over one auditorium at the Darkside Cinema in Corvallis, Oregon, for one, two or more blocks. Admission to the screenings will be free of charge; the festival will be funded in its entirety by submission fees. For that reason we are not going to provide waivers of any kind. Any surplus from this festival will be donated to our local food bank (the Linn Benton Food Share), along with donations given to us by the festival audience.

If selected, your film will be screened once in front of a live audience, many of them likely dressed up. No red carpet, no fancy websites, no extensive paid promotion, just word of mouth. You do get laurels for your film, you will have a receptive audience, an you will get to see any pictures we take at the event.

In addition, we also offer to host your film on our online platform for 24 hours. This will be an opting in offer, and we can geoblock your film any way you want us to. We will ask for donations on the platform, and any revenue from there will also go towards the Linn Benton Food Share.
