Talent is one thing. Having the confidence : and t

Talent is one thing. Having the confidence : and the space : to use it is another.At TIFF 2026, we talked to Chase Infiniti about playing Julia in The Julia Set and what the role taught her about the difference between having ability and actually being given room to use it.Her answer came back to Julia’s journey: learning to step into her own greatness, even when taking the leap feels scary.Chase also reflected on being 16, 17, 18 and afraid to do the thing she wanted to do in life : because sometimes pursuing your dream really does feel like jumping off the deep end.That feeling is familiar to a lot of creators in Toronto, Montreal, Ottawa, Calgary, Edmonton and Vancouver.You can be talented and still doubt yourself. You can be ready and still be afraid. You can know the next step matters and still need the courage to take it.What’s the “deep end” you’re being called to jump into right now?Comment “Black at TIFF” and I’ll send you the full guide. Save this before festival week.Video captured by @perr1c from @pixsoulls for Black Canadian Creators at #TIFF2026.#TheJuliaSet #ChaseInfiniti #blackcanadiancreators

Sometimes triumph is not the big breakthrough.It’s waking up and choosing to continue.For @tarajiphenson is the executive producer of Darlene Love: I Know Where I’ve Been, triumph can look like breathing, chasing a dream, or correcting a mistake : one day at a time.That kind of everyday survival counts. Continuing counts. Especially when nobody else sees how much it took to get there.Directed by Barry Avrich, Darlene Love: I Know Where I’ve Been honours an artist whose resilience carried her through every setback and back into the spotlight she deserved.Do you relate to Taraji’s definition of triumph? Tell us what continuing has looked like for you.Interview by @247hustler from @whitmediastudios for Black Canadian Creators edited by BCC#TIFF2026 #DarleneLove #blackcanadiancreators

Some stories ask what justice looks like. This one asks what forgiveness costs.Ben'Imana, Marie-Clémentine @dusabejambo ’s powerful feature debut, follows women navigating the question of forgiveness in the aftermath of the Tutsi genocide in Rwanda.The film brings the gacaca courts : community-based tribunals rooted in Rwandan tradition : into a story about justice, reconciliation, trauma and the generations living with what happened after 1994.With an almost entirely female cast and an intergenerational lens, Ben'Imana centres voices that have too often been pushed aside. It is a film about survival, memory and the difficult work of deciding what comes next.Which film are YOU seeing first? Comment "Black at TIFF" and I’ll send you the full guide.
