About Us

The Future of Film Showcase (FOFS) is a not-for-profit media arts organization founded in 2014, operating as an annual film festival presenting short films by Canadian filmmakers aged 40 and younger. We are dedicated to fostering the future of emerging Canadian filmmakers by providing a platform that celebrates their art with an audience as unique as they are. FOFS is hosted annually in May at the ScotiaBank Theatre in Toronto.
