The Future of Film Showcase is a Canadian not-for-profit media arts organization operating as an annual film festival, presenting short films from Canadian Filmmakers aged 40 and younger.

Harris (PICK, 2020 Canadian Screen Award Winner) and Sophy Romvari (Norman Norman, Still Processing), landing their shorts on larger exhibition platforms such as CBC Gem.

Future of Film Showcase would like to acknowledge the land on which we gather and organize is the territory of the Anishinaabe, the Chippewa, the Haudenosaunee, the Huron-Wendat, and the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation. Today, the meeting place of Toronto is home to many Indigenous peoples. A territorial acknowledgement can demonstrate a coming to awareness, and provoke thought and reflection, all of which are essential in beginning to establish reciprocal relations. This acknowledgement should not function as closure, resignation, or acceptance of the structural conditions of settler colonialism that remain in effect today. The Future of Film Showcase will continue to ask what it means for us to keep open a spirit of sustained inquiry into the complexities of our context.
