New York Times Top 10 Films of 2020!

City government touches almost every aspect of our lives. Most of us are unaware of or take for granted the necessary services such as police, fire, sanitation, veterans affairs, elder support, parks, licensing of various professional activities, recordkeeping of birth, marriage and death as well as hundreds of other activities that support Boston residents and visitors.

CITY HALL, by Frederick Wiseman, shows the efforts by the Boston city government to provide these services. The film also illustrates the variety of ways the city administration enters into civil discourse with the citizens of Boston. Mayor Walsh and his administration are presented addressing a number of their policy priorities which include racial justice, affordable housing, climate action,and homelessness. CITY HALL shows a city government successfully offering a wide variety of services to a diverse population.
