For immediate release — August 15, 2026
Sutudu.TV, a filmmaker-founded global streaming and distribution platform owned and operated by Sutudu LLC, will make its exhibitor debut at the inaugural TIFF: The Market, taking place September 10–16, 2026, at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre in Toronto.
At the market, Sutudu.TV will seek conversations with filmmakers, content suppliers, rights holders, sales companies and potential distribution partners from Booth A22. The company is seeking completed films, documentaries, scripted and unscripted series, vertical series, culturally specific programming and curated catalogs for potential licensing and distribution conversations.
Sutudu.TV launched publicly during the 2026 Sundance Film Festival and has since generated more than 18.5 million views across its social network, driven by the company’s viral short-form programming. Its growing catalog spans licensed films, documentaries, series and short-form programming.
The company is focused on two connected distribution pathways: Sutudu.TV, its digital streaming and creator platform, and Sutudu Cinemas, its developing theatrical initiative. Through Sutudu.TV, content partners can access transactional, subscription and advertising-supported viewing alongside audience analytics, social-first marketing, brand partnerships and secondary distribution opportunities. Through Sutudu Cinemas, the company is developing targeted, event-driven and market-specific theatrical releases with exhibitors and experienced distribution partners.
Sutudu’s international footprint includes Sutudu Vietnam and Head of Acquisitions Liz Sanchez, based in Mexico, who leads outreach to rights holders, producers, sales companies and international content suppliers. Chief Social Officer Eliana Ghen — whose content has generated more than 10 billion views across social media and who has built a community of more than 17 million followers — leads Sutudu’s social strategy alongside Chief Marketing Officer Joe Nunez, helping filmmakers, suppliers and brand partners develop audiences around their work.
“We did not build Sutudu to become another place where a filmmaker uploads a movie and waits. We built it to connect distribution with audience development, marketing, community, and new revenue opportunities. Sutudu.TV gives us a digital home, while Sutudu Cinemas allows us to begin building theatrical pathways with exhibitors and distribution partners. The Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) is where we want to meet the people ready to build that next phase with us.”
— Khoa D. Le, Founder and CEO, Sutudu.TV
