Kensington Market heart of the city  Cover Image DVD DVD

Kensington Market [videorecording] : heart of the city / written and directed by Stuart Clarfield.

Clarfield, Stuart, (screenwriter,, film director.). Mission Media Enterprises, (film distributor.).

Summary:

A feature documentary that tells the story of the many generations of immigrants who have made Kensington home for over 150 years, explores the personalities in the market today, and observes the forces that are threatening the market's survival. Today, Kensington Market is a delightfully human and colorful alternative to the skyscraper draped Toronto metropolis that is shooting up around it. Through numerous incarnations, the market has managed to hold onto its unique, eclectic charm and its free-spirited nature.
