Contested Streets - Thursday -

"Traffic Tales" ~ Bloor Cinema ~ Thursday October 26

Streets to Screens, the TPSC's monthly fundraising film series, has had some great audiences and good media coverage from The Toronto Star, the National Post, Torontoist, CBC Radio, and many other outlets. Paul Matthews, writing in Toronto Life Magazine's 'The Screening Room' film blog, even called us 'a perfect cinematic antidote' to the Toronto International Film Festival.

The last regular screening of the fall season is THIS THURSDAY (that's tomorrow!) at the Bloor Cinema at 7pm. It's our 'Traffic Tales' programme, featuring the CANADIAN PREMIERES of Stefan Schaefer's buzzworthy 'Contested Streets: Breaking NYC Gridlock' and Clarence Eckerson Jr's documentary short 'A Conversation with Enrique Penalosa'. Read all about these films on our website, www.streetstoscreens.ca

There is still one more bonus screening in the fall season, at the Toronto Free Gallery on November 9, then the winter season kicks off on November 23 with a very special CANADIAN PREMIERE, which will be announced tomorrow and on the website after November 16. Details are on the website.

Tickets are $9 at the Bloor Box Office, and all funds raised go to support the Toronto Public Space Committee. The film will be followed by a Q&A discussion panel moderated by Constance Exley of Planners for Tomorrow, and featuring:

* Les Kelman, Traffic Management Centre Director for the City of Toronto
* Yvonne Bambrick, Streets Are For People/PS Kensington
* Maogosha Pyjor, Community Bicycle Network
Councillor Adam Giambrone is also tentatively scheduled to speak. (someone, hold me back!)
