about us
our mission
We are a Toronto-based film club organisation that aims to combine great films
with thought-provoking discussions about what keeps us up at night.
Our goal is to create an environment where film enthusiasts
can connect with creators in the industry and expert panelists
through conversation about central movie themes.

Executive Director
You might recognize Nick (He/Him) from his acting roles in goofy docu-dramas that air in the middle of the night.
When he’s not hard at work sharing the joy of film with the world, you can find him obsessing over the Criterion Collection and getting stuck on the NYT Sunday Crossword.
Favourite movie: Burning (버닝) (2018)

Head of Programming

Head of Communications
Cindy (she/they) is a Chinese-Canadian theatre practitioner, aspiring academic, and emerging arts administrator.
They are excited to expand their branches and work as the Head of Communications for Sleepless Cinema, waiting patiently for the emails to roll through.
Their favourite movies are Coraline (2009) or Cats (2019)
(because thats what the “C”s stand for in their name)

Head of Marketing
Gail (she/her) is a seasoned festival & event coordinator branching out into the world of marketing! Gail loves building brand kits and establishing the personality behind a project; she is so excited to bring those skills to Sleepless Cinema!
In her spare time she can be found making soul collages under soft purple lights.
Her favourite movies are: Say Anything… (1989) & High Fidelity (2000) (because John Cusack)
