Montreal Jazz Culture Takes Centre Stage at TIFF 2025

Chosen for TIFF 2025’s Short Cuts Program 01, Jazz infernal by Will Niava features original music, blending Montreal’s jazz heritage with the contemporary journey of a young Ivorian trumpeter in exile.

Driven by jazz as a universal language, the short film Jazz Infernal follows the journey of a young Ivorian trumpeter navigating exile, integration, and Afro-descendant memory.

Premiered last week at Toronto’s Scotiabank Theatre and nominated in the short films category at TIFF 2025, the film premiered as part of Short Cuts on September 4.
