Blue Ice Docs has acquired Canadian rights to Ali Weinstein’s documentary Your Tomorrow, which will make its world premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) in September.

Your Tomorrow is a TVO original documentary that looks at the final year of Ontario Place before its redevelopment, filmed through the perspective of some of the people impacted, ranging from environmentalists, security guards, bird watchers and retirees.
