One of the biggest highlights of a film festival? Finding a wildly talented first-time feature director with a unique vision and a firm understanding of how to execute it. One of those directors at TIFF 2023? The Queen of My Dreams director Fawzia Mirza.

Amrit Kaur leads the film as Azra, a 22-year-old living in Toronto with her girlfriend in 1999. When her father (Hamza Haq) suddenly passes, Azra must return to Pakistan to be with family, including her very conservative mother played by Nimra Bucha.

In celebration of The Queen of My Dreams’ world premiere at the festival, Mirza, Kaur, Haq, and Bucha all visited the Collider media studio at the Cinema Center at MARBL to discuss their experience making the film. Kaur, Haq, and Bucha highlight the qualities that made Mirza a standout first-time feature director, Haq, Bucha, and Mirza discuss how Kaur soared in her first lead role in a feature film, and all four pinpoint a movie that proved pivotal in putting them on the path they're pursuing today.

Watch it all in this TIFF 2023 interview!
