Concrete Valley opens Friday at TIFF It's a beautiful portrait of Thorncliffe Park but it's also rigorous with a level of craft and detail that this city needs. The insight found is hard-won but genuinely profound and I hope you're able to see it with an audience in Toronto.

What a great turnout! Thank you to everyone that came out to our premiere. The film plays in Toronto until August 3. Be sure to grab your tickets if you haven’t done so already.
