COUCHFF is an IMDb-eligible quarterly event committed to highlighting and showcasing the very best films from around the globe. We welcome filmmakers to submit to our Spring, Summer, Fall and Winter Editions.
***Due to the State of Emergency Order in the Province of Ontario in an effort to flatten the curve of the COVID-19 pandemic, our SPRING EDITION screening on March 31st has been cancelled. We will continue to release the award-winners list on March 31 via our website and Facebook page!***
***WE ONLY SCREEN THE BEST FILM FINALISTS FOR EACH EDITION*** Semi-Finalists are eligible for awards but are NOT screened.
**ACCEPTING SUBMISSIONS FOR OUR SPRING EDITION UNTIL MARCH 23**
Films so good we can't get off the couch!
We are ready to see films - great films that would knock our socks off.
We are ready to see some talent - exquisite talent that would make us laugh, make us cry, scare us or make us think.
We are ready to give awards - IMDb-eligible awards that recognize the best in many categories. This means that any nominations and awards you receive through our festival can be linked/added to your IMDb profile!
We are ready to screen the best of these films at the 401 Richmond Building in Toronto - and yes, THE SCREENING ROOM HAS A COUCH!
