In a city of 2,615,060 people, why would anyone be lonely?

They say people in Toronto just don't smile at each other. Yet, in a city notorious for being cold to strangers, several lives intersect one night, oblivious to the loneliness that connects them all.

COLD is a bitter-sweet ode to Toronto, the city that brings us all together, yet somehow manages to keep us distant.

Nominated for 5 TARA Awards and winner of Ryerson University's 2013 President's Award of Excellence, COLD is an Independent Short Film by Perspective Pictures and produced as part of Ryerson's RTA School of Media.
