we cannot afford to lose sight of the beginning.”

Celebrating "Live Cinema"

Every year, the Toronto Silent Film Festival screens some of the world's finest silent films. And every year we pair them with music, improvised and played live by accomplished artists. A bond is created: between performers onscreen, performers in-person, and you. These are once-in-a-lifetime events, never to be duplicated.

The films screened at the Toronto Silent Film Festival are part of our collective cinema history—a history that stretches from the late-19 th Century to the present. A history that continues to be written. Discover for yourself the power that silent film has to enchant you.
