After our successful screening of "No Impact Man" last month, we have decided to continue our documentary series with the 2011 Sundance award winner and Academy Award nominated "WASTELAND".
This film documents the project of Brazilian artist Vik Muniz as he travels to the world's largest trash dump ("Jardim Gramacho") on the outskirts of Rio de Janeiro. His intent is to capture the lives of the "catadores”—self-designated pickers of recyclable materials who make their livings off the land fill. Both devastating and inspiring, "Wasteland" has an unforgettable environmental and humanitarian message.
We hope to see you there!

Last year for Earth Day, we had the bike set up to power the DVD "Planet Earth," as well as pledge cards for individuals to take, fill out, and place on our homemade poster (made from an old cardboard box) to enter our raffle to win the "green" gift basket! We hope to have a similar event this year!
