Der Garten



Gerd schickte den Hinweis auf den Dokumentarfilm The garden: "The community garden in South Central Los Angeles is the largest of its kind in the United States. Started as a form of healing after the devastating L.A. riots in 1992, the South Central Farmers have since created a miracle in one of the country’s most blighted neighborhoods."
Nach 12 Jahren wurde das Land in einem "backroom-deal" verkauft und der Film dokumentiert, wie die Gärtner um "The garden" kämpfen.
"The garden has been compared to Eden probably a million times - hell, the allusion is right there in the title of the documentary - but it’s with good reason. To see land being used in a healthy, loving way in an urban environment really does feel like a return to Eden." Trailer und Host a screening und schönes Plakat
