If all you know of Canada are mountains and hockey, Dream Tower will show you a different side of the country. It is a brief (60 min.) history of Rochdale College, which was a highrise in downtown Toronto that was converted into an alternative college associated with the University of Toronto in the late 60's to early 70's. The story is a microcosm of the decade as idealism declines into decadence and lunacy resulting in the police hauling everyone out of the building and converting it to seniors' residences. Some fun archival footage of earnest Canadian hippies makes this an easy watch.
