Synopsis: City-dwellers lucky enough to live near an open green space truly appreciate the respite that the neighborhood park can provide. In contrast to the crowded, dirty city, the park offers people room to walk their dogs, exercise, read, and think. In this documentary, director Tony Okun explores the role of the park in his community through footage taken there, the observations of visitors, and interviews with recreation center leaders who use the park in their activities with children. Through straightforward, serious narration and music of various styles, Okun presents a thoughtful meditation on the importance of public parks in the context of the bustling metropolis.
