The Toronto International Film Festival expects to generate seven times more sales of movies, television series and video-game projects within the next five years, after launching a market to facilitate such transactions.

Richard Crouse, film critic and host of the podcast Last Call with Richard Crouse, joins BNN Bloomberg to share his insights on the opening night of TIFF.

Unlike the Cannes and Berlin film festivals, which have programs and areas dedicated to selling new projects, the Toronto event — the largest film festival in North America — had focused on exhibiting movies rather than brokering purchases in the 49 years since its founding.
