Regent park film festival to highlight unspoken social struggles
Created in 2003, the Regent Park Film Festival (RPFF) in Toronto, Canada, is a free community film festival dedicated to showcasing local and international independent works that are relevant to Regent Park. The films shown reflect themes such as immigration, inner city issues, cultural identity, and multicultural relationships. Films from all over the world are shown.
Besides films, there are panel discussions and performances, and professional training is provided at no cost.
The festival aims to provide the residents of Regent Park, and beyond, with a forum for dialogue about social issues.
Regent Park is the oldest and largest public housing in Canada.
