We’re delighted to be able to welcome a number of former Short Cuts filmmakers, who are returning to the festival this year with their feature film debuts. They are ready to share all they learned in making the journey from shorts to features; from the moments of triumph to the challenges and the surprises they never knew were ahead of them.
DGC Ontario Master Class with Rob Reiner
Thursday, September 15
10:30AM- 11:30 AM

Director/writer/actor/producer Rob Reiner has built a remarkable body of work in comedy and drama, which has cemented his place in contemporary culture and consciousness. His career has spanned decades, from writing for The Smothers Brothers and All in the Family (and his iconic role as Michael Stivic), to a spectacular filmmaking career with standout features including: Stand By Me, The Princess Bride, When Harry Met Sally, A Few Good Men, This Is Spinal Tap, Misery, and the poignant Being Charlie. Reiner returns to TIFF with his new film LBJ, to discuss the versatility of his career in film and television, and his commitment to social justice on and off screen.
