Flemingdon Park. The global village
Description
Using vintage footage and commentary from former residents, this documentary examines the history and current reality of Toronto's Flemingdon Park. Now a subsidized housing project, it was built in 1961 as a trendy urban utopia for artists and young professionals. A decade later it was sold, and Flemingdon became home to tens of thousands of refugees and new immigrants from around the globe.
