City government touches many aspects of our lives and yet most of us are unaware of or take for granted the services that are performed. City Hall shows the efforts by Boston city government, led by Mayor Martin Walsh, to address racial justice, affordable housing, climate action, homelessness, and support for seniors, immigrants, and veterans. The film also illustrates the variety of ways the city administration enters into civil discourse with the citizens of Boston. City Hall demonstrates a city government successfully offering a wide variety of services to a diverse population.
