| Summary |
This is the story of the spontaneous emergence of urban farming in the city of Detroit. Detroit, once an industrial powerhouse, is a city devastated by the loss of half its population due to the collapse of manufacturing. By the looks of it, the city has died. But now, against all odds, in the empty lots, in the old factory yards, and the sad, sagging blocks of company housing, seeds of change are taking root. Official Selection at the **Sebastopol Documentary Film Festival** and at the **San Francisco Green Film Festival.** *"...conveys an infectious energy spreading throughout the city, garden by garden, that is palpable even to faraway viewers." - Claire Thompson, **Grist*** |
