Trial By Trailer: Welcome to Scarborough! A beloved borough in Toronto…my beloved borough in Toronto.
From writer-director Ron Dias this indie features stars Fefe Dobson and Alex Mallari Jr.
Morningside will chart the intertwining lives within Scarborough’s Morningside community center. The film “will chart personal struggles, relationships, and societal challenges faced by the diverse set of characters amid the looming threat of gentrification.”
When Alex Mallari Jr. visited My Summer Lair to discuss Code 8; I asked him about Morningside since he’s also from Scarborough:
Morningside opens in cinemas on February 21, 2025. (I assume it’ll be playing at Morningside Cinemas? Like come on, that’s fantastic marketing…)
