Hot Docs Ted Rogers Cinema, Toronto, Tues Sept 13th!

Singer John Legend will be hitting up the Hot Docs Ted Rogers Cinema in Toronto on September 13th, to host a free night at the movies with Mark Duplass from the Duplass brothers duo, also alongside TIFF Vanguard programmer Colin Geddes.

The event will highlight three AXE Collective aspiring filmmakers who have produced films all within the Vanguard category (described as dark and edgy). As part of the AXE program, each filmmaker had the lucky chance of being mentored by Legend and Duplass and the event will spotlight what’s now and next in filmmaking.

But like all things that are free, we suggest you get there early as admission is on a first-come-first-serve basis. And although Legend won’t actually be singing, the night will also feature a DJ, popcorn, hors d’oeuvres, complimentary cocktails, and dessert.

Location:  Bloor Hot Docs Cinema, 506 Bloor St. W. Toronto, ON at Bathurst (416.637.3123)

Time:  9:30p - 11:00p

No cover but get there early
