The ICFF is a not-for-profit, publicly attended film festival in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, programming international films and taking place during the summer. Founded in 2012, ICFF has grown from a four-day, single-venue festival of 18 films, to a 10-day, nine-city festival of over 130 feature films, documentaries and short films.[1]
The ICFF has a monthly program with screenings and events held in its main cities, a Youth Festival program and its main June Festival initiative.
Every year ICFF takes place during the month of June in celebration of Ontario’s Italian Heritage Month with screenings in the cities of Toronto, Vaughan, Vancouver, Hamilton, Markham, Niagara, Montreal, Ottawa and Quebec City.[2] The ICFF festival screenings in Toronto are held at the TIFF Bell LightBox. The ICFF also runs special events and international programs throughout the year, which aim to involve different niche audiences.
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic in Canada, in 2020 the 9th edition of the ICFF took place online. In both 2020 and 2021, in light of the pandemic the ICFF and corporate sponsor Lavazza also organized the special 'Lavazza Drive-In Film Festival,' a screening series of films presented at a drive-in theatre at Ontario Place; the Lavazza Festival included some Italian films in its program, but programmed a diversity of films representing a broad cross-section of Canadian and international multicultural films rather than being exclusively Italian-themed.[3]
In 2021, the ICFF introduced an open-air section of the festival at Trillium Park in Toronto, and in 2022, the festival fully transitioned to an outdoor format at the Distillery Historic District under the new name 'IncluCity Festival.'[4][5] The new format includes international and multicultural cinema screenings on the streets and main square of the Distillery District, as well as stages and street activations.[6]
In 2023, the festival introduced a new section dedicated to dark drama and horror films called 'The Dark Side.' This program features full-length films screened at midnight in the outdoor setting of the Distillery District.[7][8][9]

Special Events
Part of ICFF’s mandate is to celebrate Italian culture in all its aspects and each year ICFF organizes different events and initiatives to display renowned Italian traditions.
ICFF Industry Days
The Industry Days are an annual event which first launched in 2015. The event poses an opportunity for filmmakers and industry professionals to network and share ideas, which in past editions has led to collaborations and co-production projects. The Industry Days discuss the opportunities and challenges faced by the industry, startups and talent development. The day-long program includes panel discussions and industry professionals who discuss their experiences working on Italian-Canadian productions and share ideas for the next phase of co-productions between the two countries.[38]
Guest speakers in recent years included: Academy Award-winning composer for Life Is Beautiful, Nicola Piovani; Oscar-winning producer and screenwriter, Nick Vallelonga,[39] for Green Book; ILBE producer, Andrea Iervolino; actress Mira Sorvino; Academy Award-winning director of Piper, Alan Barillaro; and Academy Award-winning producer for The Shape of Water, J. Miles Dale.

ICFF in the Vineyard
This ICFF annual event brings together film, wine and food in partnership with Two Sisters Vineyards in Niagara-on-the-lake, Ontario. Its aim is to celebrate Italy’s gastronomic culture, flavours and food traditions through a film screening that accompanies the experience at the vineyard.

ICFF Call the Shots
Call The Shots is an annual event that celebrates and honours women’s achievements in thought, leadership, and action. Call the Shots: Female Power Through Film tackles various themes and subject matter from the perspective of women who have achieved great success and become experts in their respective fields. In every aspect, in every field, and in every sector - be it filmmaking, journalism, the arts or industrial entrepreneurship - our guests represent the Canadian and Italian-Canadian women making an impact on their community and society as a whole.[43][44]
Apericena at ICFF
Each year ICFF, in honour of TIFF, organizes a networking dinner-aperitivo night.
This is an event open to everyone in the industry and the Italian delegation at TIFF. Invitations are sent to celebrate Italian films in partnership with TIFF, as well as an early look at the next year's ICFF program.
ICFF Motori
The event brings together all car enthusiasts from both Italian and Canadian backgrounds, who have an interest in learning more about the history, culture and manufacturing through films and documentaries. ICFF hosts discussion opportunities with film directors and actors as well as panels for further exploration of the theme.

ICFF Befana in Vaughan
This event focuses on a longstanding tradition in Italian culture known as “befana”. The initiative takes place every year in Vaughan, where the day is filled with events and activities dedicated to children.[46]
ICFF Youth Film Festival
ICFF Youth is the annual film program of ICFF that promotes film as an art form using the platform of International Cinema, while providing students (ages 8 to 18) with exposure to a variety of cultures and languages.
The program includes feature films, documentaries, animations and shorts. It provides educators with an alternate teaching strategy that respects a variety of learning styles.
The mission of ICFF Youth is two-fold:
1. To use cinema as a tool to enrich students’ analytical and critical skills while learning about key elements of the art of filmmaking.
2. To give students the opportunity to develop their knowledge of international languages and culture while enjoying the best of contemporary International Cinema.[47]
Eight to ten movies are selected each year for screenings set in Vaughan, Richmond Hill, North York and Toronto. The films are screened in their original language (Italian, French, Mandarin, Cantonese, Spanish and Portuguese) with English subtitles,[48] and come with pedagogical material provided to all participating teachers. All suggested activities and strategies are based on the Ontario Curriculum which serves as a guide for all prepared educational material.
