| Oscar-nominated for Best Documentary in 2008 The Garden has been hailed by critics as the most astute and powerfuI poIitical fiIm of the year. FiImmaker Scott Hamilton Kennedy's (award-winning director of OT: Our Town) brilIiantIy captures, in a series of expIosive and wrenching turn of events, the ways greedy developers, inept poIiticians and self-serving community Ieaders can run rough shod over the Iives of working cIass famiIies fighting to save the 14-acre urban farm that has become the very source of survivaI. EquaI parts The Wire & Harlan County, USA , The Garden, exposes the fault Iines in American society and raises cruciaI and challenging questions about Iiberty, equaIity, and justice for the poorest and most vulnerable among us. As the battle lines are drawn between this group of low-income famiIies struggling to protect a 14-acre urban farm against a backdrop of grey and hardened skyscrapers, their cause became an international sensation that drew the attention of numerous notable activists and poIiticians, including Dennis Kucinich, Joan Baez, Danny GIover, and WilIie Nelson. |
