Dear Friends,

FILM FOR PEACE
www.FilmForPeace.org
The creative solution to ending violence in our community!

The escalation of violence in Toronto must be addressed now! Toronto Waterfront Magazine (TWM) and Anti-Violence Educational Services (AV Youth) are taking a progressive role in tackling the issue of violence in Toronto by creating the “Film for Peace” contest. This is an exciting opportunity for our city to address the escalation of violence in a creative way. This event comes at a time when our city needs it most. Our partners are coming together to launch a campaign that will address the violence in our community in a positive way.

As an experiential filmmaking program, “Film for Peace” will engage participants of all ages, especially with a focus on youth. Details of this important initiative will be released during Waterfront Magazine’s annual TIFF event on Thursday, September 13, 2018 at Toula, the Westin Harbour Castle Hotel. By coming together, we are showing the world that we are truly #torontostrong.

We invite residents of the Greater Toronto Area (GTA) to submit a short film addressing the issue of violence that is informative, inspiring and entertaining. Winning entrants of the “Film For Peace Filmmakers Contest” will premiere at the Film Festivals in 2019 and qualify for great prizes.

The Contest is hosted by Toronto Waterfront Magazine. Only submissions from residents of Ontario will be accepted. No purchase is necessary to enter the contest. Participation in the contest constitutes entrants’ full and unconditional agreement to and acceptance of the rules and the decisions of TWM, which are final and binding. Contest entries may be submitted by an individual or by a group. All entrants must complete the “Permission Form.” If the entrant is under the age of 18, the permission form must be signed by a parent or legal guardian.

Entrants will be judged on their ability to effectively communicate, through the medium of film, the issue of violence in Toronto. We encourage films that introduce potential solutions to achieving sustainable peace as a community.

Waterfront Magazine’s annual TIFF event & launch of Film For Peace contest is going to be the must attend event during TIFF as our community has seen an increase in violence in 2018 with attacks happening all around the GTA. By supporting this event you are supporting a brighter future for our children. Community matters and peace is possible if we continue to work together.
