    Savour this one, loyal Radar readers, because after today, most of what you see here will in some way combine the words "film" and "festival". So, in the interest of fairness, I'm going to recommend you something interesting that will probably fly under the radar (so to speak) of Yorkville galas and paparazzi crowded hotels. Starting today is the Junction Arts Festival, which takes place on Dundas between Keele Street and Quebec Avenue. Unlike your run-of-the-mill Toronto street festival (and there have been many this summer), the focus is not on reduced price street food or hastily rehearsed cover bands. Instead, to mark the 100th anniversary of the Junction's incorporation into the city, the neighbourhood will celebrate its vital art scene with more art installations than you could imagine, free movie screenings, and some excellent free live outdoor music (including acts such as Revival Dear, Justin Rutledge, and David Usher). The festival goes from today until Sunday.
