Trailer
“Macdonald and Rice-Edwards have pieced together...more than a piece of mere reportage, they have crafted a true experience.” - Oliver Jones, Observer
“As breathtaking as "One to One" proves to be as a documentary experience, the real message is unmistakable: in a world that challenges our values at every turn... apathy can never be allowed to win out.” - Kenneth Womack, Salon.com
“One to One is a reminder of the future we kids imagined in 1972. It’s also an act of encouragement. Lennon put it well when he told a concert audience, “OK, so flower power didn’t work. So what? We start again.”” - Sheri Linden, The Hollywood Reporter
The Monday Cinema series is part of the Toronto International Film Festival Film Circuit and is presented by Trail and District Arts Council and proudly supported by Clark's Funeral Services.
