YES GET FUCKED
Toronto has a huge Ukrainian community. GTFO, Russian shills.
Organizers cited “significant threats to festival operations and public safety” as the reason for the cancellation but also stated they “support civil discourse about and through films, including differences of opinion.”
The system works!
Justice
Finally. What a disgrace that we are here in the first place
The respectful public demonstration is till happening as planned on Fri,at Scotiabank Theatre, Toronto. Notice how TIFF and the Russian-Canadian Director has tried to make themselves as the victims in all of this citing threats and public safety. Typical Russian propaganda, Russians are the victims in Ukraine and apparently in Canada. With Ukrainian and Ukrainian-Canadians as the aggressors in both countries. Have no doubt, TIFF will attempt to air this at a later date.
Finally
Suspended, NOT cancelled!!! TIFF will try to screen it again!!! Disgraceful!!!!
Next Goal? The director in her own feature film ‘my return to Mordor’
I have been waiting for good news like this. Congratulations to everyone involved, especially the peaceful protesters!
Humanizing invaders from the most unhinged dictatorship in Europe while the conflict had not even reached its peak stage of violence. What can go wrong?

This is whole situation with the Russian propaganda film has been widely recognized and condemned in Canada, Chrystia Freeland said it best recently when she called it out a few days ago: [https://nationalpost.com/video/9752c9dc-6faf-11ef-aaa5-1e0c1d8a77ee/freeland-critical-of-russian-soldiers-film-amid-tiff-protest](https://nationalpost.com/video/9752c9dc-6faf-11ef-aaa5-1e0c1d8a77ee/freeland-critical-of-russian-soldiers-film-amid-tiff-protest)
