Documentary film about the Vancouver Olympics.
RE: Documentary film about the Vancouver Olympics.
The "Five Ring Circus" exposes a side to the Vancouver Olympics which
has not been revealed before. This film shows how this three week event
is changing Vancouver forever. Find out what mayors, activists and
residents think of the 2010 olympic games.
With three years to go before the games, this documentary examines how
the commitments to environmental, social and economic sustainability
have not been kept and how the preparations for the games are affecting
diverse communities. Is Vancouver getting into the spirit of the
Olympics? This independent documentary promises to be controversial.
The documentary features interviews with mayors Derek Corrigan, Richard
Walton, and Pamela Goldsmith-Jones, University of Toronto Professor
Helen Lenskyj, Christopher Shaw of 2010 Watch, Sara MacIntyre of the
Canadian Taxpayers Federation, Kim Kerr of DERA, David Eby of Pivot
Legal, David Cunningham, Betty Krawczyk and many others. It also
features appearances by Sam Sullivan, Gordon Campbell and members of the
Vancouver police department.
