Toronto: Industry office changes
Toronto co-director Noah Cowan has announced Giula Filippelli will step down as head of the festival's sales and industry office. Stefan Wirthensohn will be upped into the lead role as Director on January 1. Filippelli will stay on as a consultant.
"In a few short years, Giulia has helped change the way this organization relates to and serves the international industry without compromising our unique character as a film festival, not a market," stated Cowan. "We are sad not to have her here with us every day but are extremely pleased that she will work with us for the foreseeable future to ensure our continued success on an international front."
