Toronto Apartment (2026)
Director: Tristan Wheeler

Did you know? The film's writer-director actually sublet his own Toronto apartment as a "pop-up art gallery" for two-hour slots to pay rent after a breakup, and the real-life guests inspired many of the movie's quirky characters.
Why Watch: In a city where a decent apartment costs your soul, *Toronto Apartment* turns heartbreak into high-stakes, darkly comedic survival—proving that renting out your home by the hour is the most millennial way to keep the lights on. This sharply written indie gem is a must-watch for anyone who's ever wondered how far they'd go to make rent, blending cringe-worthy encounters with genuine warmth. Binge it for the relatable premise, stay for the chaotic parade of strangers who teach our hero more about community than love ever did.
After a brutal breakup, a Toronto man keeps afloat by renting out his apartment by the hour, rebranding it as a so-called "community space" just to cover the rent.
