It’s been another fantastic year for Canadian cinema and there is a good chance a few films will crack our staff’s best of 2011 list (which we will be posting sometime between Christmas and New Years). Until than, you can also check out Tiff’s selections of the top 10 best features and top 10 best short films of 2011, as determined by a panel of industry professionals, during tonight’s 11th annual Canada’s Top Ten announcement.
Here is the press release:
Established in 2001, Canada’s Top Ten celebrates excellence in Canadian cinema and raises public awareness of Canadian achievements in film. Taking place from January 5 to 15, 2012 at Tiff Bell Lightbox, the programme features a panel discussion and public screenings accompanied by introductions and Q&A sessions with filmmakers. Select films will tour major cities across the country, including Vancouver’s Pacific Cinematheque, Edmonton’s Metro Cinema and Ottawa’s ByTowne Cinema.

Here's something that I think even the most ardent critics of 3D technology will have to appreciate.With music by Robert Lepage, Philippe Baylaucq's Ora is a dance film unlike any other. Shot without the use of any lighting at all, it is a 3D performance piece shot using thermal imaging technology to capture the performance using the heat given off by the dancers' bodies.Though there is no trailer for the short film yet the National Film Board of Canada has released a trio of clips, which you can see below....

Ora
Directed by Philippe Baylaucq
2011, Canada, 15 minutes
Ora is a visual treat – modern dance choreography meets cinematic innovation of the highest order. It is the first time infrared thermal imaging technology has been used to shoot a complete film (the technology is strictly controlled and limited to military, medical, and scientific applications), and it is shot in 3D to boot. The resulting sensory experience is incredible.
We Ate the Children Last
Directed by Andrew Cividino
2011, Canada, 13 minutes
Based on the story by Booker prize-winning author Yann Martel, this slick sci-fi film is a good example of what makes a short work. The action is tight, the cinematography is careful but powerful, and the story is interesting but straightforward. Frankly, the film makes me a little jealous.

With big names like Cronenberg and Polley already announced a couple of weeks ago, it came time this morning to announced the rest of the home team for the Toronto International Film Festival. This morning, they filled in some of the gaps in the Special Presentations, Vanguard, and Real to Reel sections, and at the same time presented the full line-ups for their Canada First! and Short Cuts programmes, the former highlighting feature debuts, and the latter comprised of a whopping 43 Canadian short films running anywhere from 4 to 28 minutes long. We saw the announcements of Maddin's Keyhole and Vallée's Venice Days entry Café de Flore coming from a mile away. Invariably, almost all any given year's Canada's Top Ten list (a prestigious, juried selection of the ten best Canadian films of the year) have appeared somewhere in Tiff's Canadian categories. Also from Venice, we have the non-Canadian helmer Mary Harron...
