You’re Invited: Indiewire Talks to Matthew Weiner, Jason Bateman, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Metallica and More in Toronto
Insiders at the Toronto International Film Festival can connect daily
with filmmakers and stars in Toronto at our afternoon talk series
beginning this Saturday. Indiewire @ The TIFF Filmmakers Lounge launches Saturday, September 7 at the TIFF Filmmakers Lounge in the
downtown Hyatt Hotel next the TIFF Bell Lightbox (mezzanine level).
Over four days, from 530pm – 630pm, passholders attending the
festival (filmmakers, industry, press, or whoever has something
around their neck looking official) can watch talent from this year’s
festival talk about their films with the staff of Indiewire. Guests
include Chiwetel Ejiofor, Matthew Weiner, Jason Bateman, Juno Temple, Alexandre Aja, Alex Gibney, Liza Johnson and Lars Ulrich (yes, that Lars Ulrich).
