Toronto International Film Festival and Positive Reactions

: I guess you have to take the good and the bad, and if you just get negative and/or positive reactions to your work, I don't think you can grow as a filmmaker, according to Globe and Mail. The Waiting Room made its debut at the Toronto International Film Festival last September, but it only now being released. How do you view the filmmaker-critic relationship, then It part of the process. How do you deal with the weight of the film over those months Well, the film has been travelling at festivals, so I've been going along with it, to seven or eight cities. The international press, for instance, seem to like it more than the local press in Toronto, who seem way more split. It been great to get a reaction from different audiences, and in different countries. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
