Media City Film Festival (MCFF) is a trailblazing international festival for film and digital art, presented in Windsor, Ontario and Detroit, Michigan since 1994. The House of Toast Film & Video Collective / MCFF also facilitate commissions, residencies, fellowships, workshops and other activities year-round. HoT/MCFF is the only organization in the world to regularly present artists’ film on both sides of an international border, and is recognized as a globally significant destination for the production and exhibition of artists’ cinema. The festival takes place at venues across the US-Canadian border, including at The Detroit Institute of Arts, The Museum of Contemporary Art Detroit, and the Art Gallery of Windsor. Media City’s main venue is the historic Capitol Theatre and Arts Centre. Over the years, MCFF has earned a reputation worldwide as the leading venue for the presentation and reception of artists’ cinema, and is lauded for its “sheer excellence in programming”, its impeccable technical presentation standards, and its convivial and inclusive atmosphere. It is the only Canadian organization in history to be supported by John S. and James L. Knight Foundation, and became one of only two non-American organizations to be supported by The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences since the inception of their granting program in 1967 (the other is the Toronto International Film Festival).
