The 8th edition of Toronto Women Film Festival brings together female talents from all over the world. The festival is dedicated to talents contributing to the language of cinema as women in film. The festival committee brings together the previous award winning artists as members of the jury who vote for the best of each category under the supervision of the festival manager and the artistic director of the festival.
All the award winners of each edition can request for online promotion and screening through Toronto Film Channel which has screened the award winners of Toronto Women Film Festival in the past editions.
