The Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) is continuing its ‘Stay-at-Home Cinema’ partnership with Bell Media with two new installments happening this week.
Bell and TIFF started the Stay-at-Home Cinema partnership back in March to offer Canadians at-home movie viewing experiences during the COVID-19 pandemic. The pair stream movies over Bell’s Crave streaming platform.
This week, TIFF and Bell Media will streamĀ ParasiteĀ on Tuesday, June 2nd andĀ Paris is BurningĀ on Friday, June 5th. Both will be accompanied by a live stream that kicks off at 7pm ET. The movies will start at 7:30.
TheĀ ParasiteĀ live stream will feature Cameron Bailey, artistic director and co-head of TIFF. Bailey will chat with Sharon Choi, filmmaker and interpreter for ParasiteĀ director Bong Joon Ho. Tom Quinn, co-founder ofĀ Parasite’sĀ North American distributor, Neon, will also join the stream
The featured guest forĀ Paris is Burning on Friday has yet to be confirmed. Bell and TIFF said that the 1990 documentary from Jennie Livingston will air in celebration of Pride Month 2020.
