Margaret Qualley leads Love Of Your Life at Toronto
Margaret Qualley leads as Maya in Love Of Your Life, the Amazon MGM romantic drama that held its world premiere on 13 September in Special Presentations at the Toronto International Film Festival, according to Deadline and Yahoo.
Maya is 26. She works as an ER nurse in a Boston hospital. TIFF describes the film as a contemporary portrait of love, loss and letting go.
Rachel Morrison directed the film, according to Deadline. She co-wrote the screenplay with Julia Cox. Todd Banhazi served as cinematographer. Ryan Gosling is credited as a producer.
The cast centres on Qualley as Maya. Gabriel Basso plays Charlie, the man Maya falls in love with. Aaron Pierre plays Felix. Catherine Keener plays Ruth, Charlie's mother, according to Deadline. Patrick Schwarzenegger had earlier been announced to star opposite Qualley for Amazon MGM Studios, Deadline reported in June 2025.
The story follows Maya and Charlie in Boston before widening its map. After Charlie's death, Maya lives as an expat in Lisbon. She later travels to London, New Orleans and Cape Cod, according to Deadline. The travelling structure keeps the action moving between the United States and Europe.
Toronto placed the film in Special Presentations, its section for high-profile titles with established directors and casts. The festival also featured Morrison in its In Conversation With series in connection with the film, according to TIFF.
For festival watchers, this means the sales and release chain starts here. Toronto is a marketplace as well as a showcase. Films that premiere in September often set their theatrical plans in the months that follow.
