Pleasure Dome is pleased to present New Toronto Works 2026, our highly anticipated annual program showcasing the character, complexity, and vitality of Toronto’s independent film and moving-image communities. This year’s edition brings together thirteen works by twelve artists. Selected by the 2026–27 Pleasure Dome Programming Committee, these works reflect a dynamic range of artistic practices, processes, and perspectives, offering audiences an opportunity to discover some of the newest work being made across the city. Join us on Monday, November 2, at Innis Town Hall for an in-person screening of new work by filmmakers and visual artists from Toronto and the Greater Toronto Area. The screening will be followed by an artist roundtable and Q&A with the audience.
