2021 - Emerging Critic
The Toronto Film Critics Association is an industry group. It is also an advocacy group concerned with the health of the critical industry. We recognize that even within the evolving media landscape there are institutional barriers to access and success, especially for underrepresented voices. We want to create a framework of support for aspiring film critics. The Telefilm Canada Emerging Critic Award is designed explicitly to help develop and promote the work of emerging film critics. With this annual fellowship, the TFCA hopes to help identify, cultivate and encourage a promising new voice by offering both a spotlight as well as career support for the calendar year as they seek to establish themselves in the critical field.
