“A Good Man,” the latest film from French filmmaker Marie-Castille Mention-Schaar, is facing backlash at the Toronto International Film Festival for casting a cis actor in a transgender role.

Berlinale Talents alumna Alessia Chiesa makes feature directorial debut.
La-based sales company Oration Films has come on board to handle worldwide sales at the Efm on Argentine-French Generation Kplus selection The Endless Day (El Día Que Resistía).
Berlinale Talents alumna Alessia Chiesa makes her feature directorial debut on the story, which premieres on February 17 and takes place in the woods surrounding a lonely country house.
As three children play, seemingly abandoned by adults, the film blends documentary-like observation of their games with the growing sense of dread associated with a horror film. Luara Guinde serves as producer.
“Watching it for the first time was an incredibly gripping experience,” Oration CEO Timothy O’Brien said. “While immediately establishing itself as an art film, the picture nevertheless reaches deep into archetypal emotions.
O’Brien, who will be joined at the Efm by festival consultant Bryan Glick, added: “We see El Día having a strong life, not only in art...

Bryan Glick is the director of theatrical distribution for The Film Collaborative. Some of his notable releases include "I Am Divine," "Manos Sucias" and "1971". He has also worked for Laff, AFI Fest and Sundance. Below is his take on the top festivals. We at The Film Collaborative frequently hear from filmmakers after the fact that they regretted premiering at festival "A" and wish they had opted for festival "B." Similarly, when we ask a filmmaker why they want to premiere at a particular film festival, we rarely get an answer grounded in research.
