The Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) today announced the international premieres of two more Australian films – The Little Death and Paper Planes. This takes the total number of Australian films screening at TIFF to seven, following recent invitations to five other Australian projects.
Kathleen Drumm, Screen Australia’s Head of Marketing, said, “It’s a stand-out year for Australia at Toronto. These two latest selections offer wildly different, but equally entertaining additions to the Australian line-up. The Little Death is a cheeky, laugh-out-loud comedy that is at once salacious and tender-hearted, while Paper Planes delivers exuberant family fun and star appeal. In each case, Australian festival audiences cheered loudly during the films’ local debuts. We anticipate that Canadian audiences will find them similarly intriguing and uplifting.”
