The 2024 Toronto International Film Festival continues to update its robust programming lineup. This year’s Wavelengths and Classics programs boast various hits, now including the North-American premiere of buzzy Cannes title “Viêt and Nam,” directed by Trương Minh Quý.
The Wavelengths lineup tallies 11 features, three shorts programs, and a special in-cinema looped presentation. Wavelengths alums Miguel Gomes (“Grand Tour”), Roberto Minervini (“The Damned”), and Nelson Carlo de los Santos Arias (“Pepe”) return with their respective North-American premieres. Jessica Sarah Rinland is also back to the program with “Collective Monologue.”

There is also the 14-hour documentary “exergue – on documenta 14” from Greek filmmaker Dimitris Athiridi, which will be presented over the course of three screenings.
The program is curated by Senior Curator Andréa Picard and Associate Curator Jesse Cumming, with contributions by Giovanna Fulvi, Nataleah Hunter-Young, and June Kim.
For the shorts selections, the late auteur Jean-Luc Godard’s final film “Scénarios” will have its North American premiere.
The Classics lineup further includes beloved auteurs’ works, with the 4K restoration of Atom Egoyan’s “The Sweet Hereafter” and the world premiere of the new 4K restoration of Frederick Wiseman’s documentary “Essene.” The 2024 Classics program is curated by Robyn Citizen, TIFF’s Director of Programming, and Picard.
The 49th edition of the festival will take place from September 5-15.
