We’re partnering with the Muslim International Film Festival (MIFF) in the spirit and celebration of Ramadan.
Join us at the DMZ Sandbox (Toronto Metropolitan University) for an intimate and fun cultural exchange and community-building evening.
Ramadan is a sacred month for Muslims around the world. During this time, Muslims prioritize community, worship and mutual aid. For many Muslims, it is also a time for fasting—abstaining from eating, drinking (water-included), and forms of physical intimacy and smoking. It’s essential to recognize that everyone has a unique relationship with their community and faith; no two relationships are the same. Iftar signifies the breaking of the fast. It’s a celebration of food, family and friendship.
MIFF is an Ontario-based celebration of Muslim filmmakers and cinema. Launched in 2020, the festival is run by an ambitious and passionate group of volunteers and young cinephiles with a mission to amplify Muslim representation onscreen and behind the camera.
Food (via Chachu’s) + non-alcoholic drinks will be provided.
There is no charge to attend; however, donations are welcome.
