We were already a little late with this show when it was supposed to go live last week but technical difficulties behind the scenes delayed it another week meaning that this is now less of a VIFF Top 5 and more of a “here are some amazing festival titles you need to be looking out for during awards season (and a few you should avoid)”.

Join Melissa McDowell (Letterboxd, Twitter), Bill Harris (Letterboxd, Twitter), and Marina Antunes (Letterboxd, Instagram) as they count down their festival faves.
