TORONTO IN THE MOVING IMAGE:
\nA PLANET IN FOCUS SPOTLIGHT PROGRAM<\/strong>
\nSpacing<\/em> is happy to announce we are the sponsors of a film series called Toronto In the Moving Image<\/em><\/a> during the Planet in Focus<\/strong><\/a> film festival. This retrospective of Toronto’s life on film spans more than a hundred years, from the silent era to the present day. There are films about early urban renewal efforts in Toronto that have also doubled as questionable attempts at social engineering. There are also films about our famed hothouses of psychedelic 1970’s culture, and even the odd story of forbidden love.<\/p>\n

You’ll also find out what happens to whale bones that are discovered in TTC tunnels, where Canada’s first concrete highway was built, and what the average 1950s Torontonian was advised to do in the event of a
\nnuclear war. Altogether, our city is revealed as an evolving work in progress.<\/p>\n
