The 45th Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) ploughed ahead this year albeit under socially distanced conditions from the 10th to 21st September. The programming team led by artistic director Cameron Bailey put forward a slimmed down program of 50 films with screenings pivoting mostly online on the newly launched Digital TIFF Bell Lightbox platform. This applied to press, industry and even audience members. Limited physical screenings were scheduled alongside the use of drive-in theaters.
From crowd pleasers and awards season bait to films helmed by first time auteurs, these are the films that left their mark. Ranked in ascending order.
