Toronto 2017: Ecco i film della selezione ufficiale

Il Toronto International Film Festival ha da poco annunciato in conferenza stampa tutti i titoli che saranno presentati nelle due sezioni di “Galas” e “Special Presentations”; da sempre vetrina privilegiata di tutti i maggiori film in cerca di candidature all’Oscar, il TIFF 2017 ha riservato nella lunga fila molte conferme e tante sorprese.

Suddivisi in “World”, “North-American” e “Canadian” premiére, i titoli del TIFF 2017 vanno da Battle of The Sexes a Downsizing, da Suburbicon a Mother, fino a passare per gli attesi Victoria & Abdul e Darkest Hour.

I titoli in anteprima canadese e nordamericana saranno con maggior probabilità presentati ai contigui festival di Telluride e Venezia, con molta probabilità.

Il Toronto International Film Festival si terrà dal 7 al 17 settembre nella città canadese.
