The second annual TUFF features four days of captivating films and documentaries including a new screening of family-friendly animated shorts. This year’s festival showcases a full range of work by award-winning, contemporary filmmakers.
“TUFF brings award-winning Ukrainian cinema to Canadian audiences. In our second year of programming, we are thrilled to build on last year’s success,” said Roman Lysiak. “With our newly established relationships in the Ukrainian film industry, we can present a larger slate of award-winning features including an exciting collection of animated shorts, an Oscar-shortlisted documentary, and even a steamy historical drama. Now, more than ever, it is important to celebrate Ukrainian culture by presenting powerful and captivating films from contemporary filmmakers and Eastern European-Canadian-Ukrainian collaborators. TUFF is proud to support Ukraine, and to provide a platform for its talented artists.”
