Home Feeling: Struggle for a Community

Name: Home Feeling: Struggle for a Community
Genre: Documentary
Released: 13 Jul 1983
Rating: 0.00

This feature documentary takes us to the heart of the Jane-Finch "Corridor" in the early 1980s. Covering six square blocks in Toronto's North York, the area readily evokes images of vandalism, high-density subsidized housing, racial tension, despair and crime. By focusing on the lives of several of the residents, many of them black or members of other visible minorities, the film provides a powerful view of a community that, contrary to its popular image, is working towards a more positive future.
