Jury President Brillante Ma Mendoza commented that “Amanda” is “a seemingly simple, but not simple film” and “a story of complex human emotions.” Mendoza then shared his thoughts on the festival overall: “We the jury had such a good time together. The past few days, it was quite challenging to choose the winners because of the vast diversity of the films.” He added thanks to those behind the scenes, like assistant directors, production managers and more, as well as TIFF’s volunteer staff for their “kindness, hospitality and warmth.”
