What an incredible amount of work and artistic vision.  Must have taken 100's of people to pull all this off.  You have some rather brilliant angles and perspectives, especially among the stills.  The collaboration of stills and video really works here.  I love the shop window with the sculpt of floral bells, while devoid of colour, they have the floral form as metaphor.  Perspicacious of you to have noticed it and wise to include it ... most would have overlooked it for something more colourful and flashy, yet the simplicity of floral form sans colour interrupts the deluge of colour implicit in the subject material.  My eyes like that.  I wondered why you didn't open with the hand & butterfly and then pan out, but you didn't miss it and panned into it.  This concept certainly confounds the notion that the inner city is sterile and sometimes brutal.  A really welcoming interlude.
