Peace Park
Directed by David Bouthillier2013 1h 45m
Peace Park is documentary about a turf war that is ragging in a small park in the heart of Montreal's down town core. Fighting for the public space, are drug dealers, crack addicts, alcoholics, prostitutes, the homeless, and skateboarders. There also exists a larger conflict with the city and broader elements of society who see the locals as 'undesirables'. The documentary explores the area's historical importance as a public space located in Montreal's red light district, the present political conflicts between corporate greed and grassroots artists, and the problems of city corruption. The theme of tolerance is weaved through the story, which also focuses on the cultural underground with emphasis on graffiti and skateboarding, while highlighting social and urban problems.
