Pleasure Dome and Bleeding Edge present a screening of works by Toronto-based filmmaker Kalil Haddad at Innis Town Hall on October 28, which includes the world premiere of his film Victim of Circumstance (2024).

Pleasure Dome is pleased to announce the 2024 edition of New Toronto Works. This annual screening is highly-anticipated and for good reason: when else do you have the opportunity to spend an evening relishing in brand new work made in the past year by artists from Toronto and the GTA? The screening will be followed by an in-person roundtable and Q&A with the artists.

Pleasure Dome co-presents two screenings of experimental work at the Toronto Palestine Film Festival at TIFF Bell Lightbox on September 28-29, 2024.

Pleasure Dome is pleased to present the Toronto premiere of non-binary artist Jonni Peppers’s five-part film WASTELAND. Created while Peppers was a student in experimental animation at CalArts, the film explores takes up  isolation, mental illness, and the subjective perceptions of reality in the context of the 2020s. Guest curated by Justyne Benico and Jacob Crepeault.

Pleasure Dome is pleased to co-present the Toronto screening of Juma Pariri’s film Pe ataju jumali/Hot Air (Ar Quente).

This event is presented in partnership with OCAD Graduate Studies and York University’s Centre for Research on Latin America and the Caribbean, Sensorium: Centre for Digital Arts & Technology, the Centre for Feminist Research, and the Hemispheric Encounters Network.
