CFMDC @ CineCycle

Check out our season of programming @Cinecycle.cfmdc 

​

Host your event in the unique CineCycle, an underground cinema and bicycle repair shop opened by Martin Heath in 1991 and housed in the Victorian-era coach house at 401 Richmond since 1994. CineCycle has been an essential part of Toronto’s indie and experimental film community since its inception.

Since the 1960s, Martin Heath has been at the forefront of Toronto's alternative cinema scene. A passionate filmmaker and cyclist, he has worked as a film print handler, projectionist, and cinema builder for notable organizations including the Toronto International Film Festival.

For over 30 years, CineCycle has remained a vibrant, spontaneous, and community-driven cinema space that continues Martin's vision of alternative, accessible independent film programming in Toronto.

In order to steward that legacy into the future, the CFMDC recently took over management of CineCycle’s operations. CFMDC@CineCycle marks a new chapter for this historic space—we honour Martin's pioneering spirit while continuing CineCycle's tradition of working with artist run centres, independent filmmakers, and the alternative film community in Toronto.

TERRITORY & SOLIDARITY: The daily work of CFMDC takes place in Tkaronto (Toronto) which is covered by Treaty 13 signed with the Mississaugas of the Credit, and the Williams Treaty signed with multiple Mississaugas and Chippewa bands. We also acknowledge The Dish with One Spoon treaty between the Anishinaabe and Haudenosaunee that covers the land of what is now called southern Ontario. We work with the knowledge of the importance of recognition of the UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples and the four First Nations Principles of OCAP®. As a Media Arts organization we draw your attention to the work of the National Indigenous Media Arts Coalition (NIMAC). As part of  anti-colonial solidarity, CFMDC board and staff proudly commits to the Palestinian Campaign for the Academic and Cultural Boycott of Israel (PACBI). Calls to support PACBI and the wider Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) come from Palestinian civil society and are grassroots strategies opposing the colonization of Palestine by directly targeting complicity.
