Kefalonia Animation Film Festival

“I’m so inspired by Viola Desmond and her sister Wanda, and their incredible fortitude and power… and the fact that through this event tonight, you are helping raise money for people who have dreams…. This money is going to say to them, ‘I give you this opportunity because I want you to take it,’ and you’re helping make that happen.”

— Patricia Arquette, recipient of the 2023 TIFF Share Her Journey Groundbreaker Award

The TIFF Tribute Awards is an annual fundraiser to support both TIFF’s year-round programming and the organization’s core mission to transform the way people see the world through film. Honouring entertainment’s outstanding contributors and their achievements, the event recognizes leading industry members, actors, directors, new talent, and below-the-line artists and creators. In 2024, all net proceeds will support Every Story Fund, dedicated to promoting equity, diversity, inclusion, and belonging in film.

The sixth annual TIFF Tribute Awards will be held on Sunday, September 8 at Fairmont Royal York Hotel.
