Free events in Toronto this week include tons of chances to curl up in cozy movie theatres away from the cold, including ongoing European Union Film Fest and Regent Park Film Fest. Sometimes, though, you'll have to stand in line - wouldn't want you to totally feel like a person. The Toronto Maker Faire will also dazzle you at the Reference Library this weekend with tons of crafty programming, but you can't 3D print money. I asked.

Here are Toronto's capitalism defying events this week. If nothing looks fun, there's free therapy.
