This week, TIFF's Kiva Reardon and CBC film critic Eli Glasner join host Tom Power to talk about last night's epic movie-length Game of Thrones bonanza. They also share their thoughts on Avengers: Endgame and the latest development in the streaming wars between Netflix and its competitors.
'You're not looking hard enough,' says Kiva Reardon, programmer for TIFF's Contemporary World Cinema (CWC) section and founder of the recently shuttered film journal Cléo. She rejects Barbera's notion that programming to quotas will reduce the quality of work shown at festivals.
The semi-formed part turned out to be a misnomer: In the e-mail, she detailed an impressively fleshed out concept for an online film publication produced in the style of an academic journal that would create a space for women and non-binary writers to explore a wide range of films from all over the world through perspectives that most interested them.
Reardon has extensive experience in film programming, writing, and digital media. She is the lead programmer of Contemporary World Cinema at the Toronto International Film Festival and programmed the film series "Radical Empathy: The Films of Agnès Varda" for the TIFF Cinematheque.
She is also a programmer at the Miami Film Festival and Hot Docs Canadian International Documentary Festival, the founding editor of cléo journal, and has previously worked at the Doha Film Institute in Qatar.
She's a Programmer at the Toronto International Film Festival and the founding editor of cléo, a journal of film and feminism. Reardon lives and breathes movies because cinema has actually shaped the course of her life. In this interview from last fall, we talk about her passion for film, what it's like working at TIFF, and whitewashing in Hollywood.
While curating a retrospective on Arab women filmmakers at the TIFF Cinematheque in Toronto earlier this summer, programmer Kiva Reardon considered how the foregrounding of marginalized and underrepresented cinematic voices could make an impact in 2019.
