The 13th Annual Planet in Focus Film Festival takes place October 10–14, 2012 in Toronto. Our film programs will include stories and explorations of urban and rural spaces; wildlife; social, cultural and political environments; farming; First Nations perspectives; public health; climate change; human displacement; war; globalization; water; forests; food security and other creative interpretations of the theme “environment.”

In addition to our regular public screenings, the Festival features two days of industry panels, workshops and pitch sessions devoted to the subjects of film production, distribution and funding; a school program for elementary and secondary students focused on environmental education; and entertaining and inspiring children and youth programs.
