Yet another puzzle picture, that came out on DVD back with the first wave of Wac films in 2010. An expensive romance with Albert Finney and Yvette Mimieux, it was filmed in Europe, co-written by Ray Bradbury and bears the music of Michel Legrand, including an exceedingly well known pop song. Yet it sat on a shelf for three years, only to make a humiliating world debut on TV — on CBS’s Late Nite Movie. It was clearly one of those Productions From Hell, where nothing went right.

Tiff announced its 2011 award winners earlier today and the coveted People’s Choice Award was a bit of a surprise, going to a film nobody seemed to care for: Nadine Labaki’s Where do We Go Now, a film Tiff says tells the “heartwarming tale of a group of women’s determination to protect their isolated, mine-encircled community from the pervasive and divisive outside forces that threaten to destroy it from within”. However the Cadillac People’s Choice Midnight Madness Award went to the programme’s opening night film, The Raid, a film everyone was raving about all week long.
Here is the complete list of of the award winners:
Cadillac People’s Choice Award Runner-Ups: A Separation and Starbuck

Nadine Labaki's "Where Do We Go Now?" won the coveted Cadillac People's Choice Award on Sunday at the 2011 Toronto International Film Festival. At the noncompetitive festival with no jury, this award is voted on by moviegoers on their way out of the theaters, and tallied by a formulas that equalizes for audience sizes.
The film takes place in a Lebanese village torn by years of violence. Improbably, it is a musical. The local women, both Muslim and Christian, work together to draw the minds of their husbands away from revenge; their schemes range from imported showgirls to hashish brownies. When a period of peace is interrupted, they rise anew to a more serious challenge.
Labaki's first film "Caramel" (2007) was a great success at a 2007 Tiff Gala. This film's title is an oblique reference to the problem that the village is surrounded by unexploded land mines. It doesn't yet have a North American distributor.
