Garbage Warrior Green Screens Tuesday, March 25, 2008 at 6:30 pm “If you create your own electricity, heating and water systems, you create your own politics. Maybe that’s what they’re afraid of.” –– Michael Reynolds Garbage Warrior tells the story of Michael Reynolds, a renegade environmental architect striving to build sustainable off-the-grid housing communities. Using beer cans, abandoned auto tires and disposable water bottles, among other materials, Reynolds creates environmental “earthships,” but not without conflict with the mainstream architectural bureaucracy. But after the catastrophic tsunami and Hurricane Katrina in 2005, the need for self-sufficient housing is all the more pressing. Reynolds and director Oliver Hodge will join us for a Q&A. The film is screening with The Story of Stuff, an exploration of the global materials economy and its impact on government, environment and health. –– Sharon Bahus and Isa Cucinotta Garbage Warrior Oliver Hodge, UK, 2006; 85m screening with The Story of Stuff Louis Fox, US, 2007; 21m This presentation is supported by Sundance Channel's weekly destination “Robert Redford presents THE GREEN.” The Film Society's Green Screens program addresses through film the vital environmental concerns of global warming, the safety of our food supply, sustainable living, and more. Each screening includes a discussion and reception with artists and expert commentators, where we invite non-profit organizations and others to provide materials and raise awareness of the many positive actions we can all take. In addition to this series, the Film Society screens PSAs showcasing climate change, sustainability and other matters concerning the health of our planet and its inhabitants. We are one of the first movie theaters in the country to regularly screen such PSAs and we encourage other theaters to join us.
