Forthright, critical analysis of the problems of North American cities by Jane Jacobs, authority and author of books and articles on the subject. A former New Yorker, she chose to live in Toronto because "it is a city that still has options ... it hasn't made so many mistakes that it's bound to go downhill." Her remarks, and what this film shows, will interest all civic and community groups--in fact, all urban dwellers.
