Description: “It’s a beautiful, soulful work about real estate development and sprawl…and if you think that’s impossible you haven’t seen it.” Salon.com
The American dream of owning a house with a white picket fence goes head to head with environmental sustainability in this Sundance Film Festival Official Selection from producers Robert Redford and Terrence Malick. The urgent, beautifully crafted documentary uses the struggle between an ambitious real estate developer and a proposed subdivision that threatens a locally treasured limestone aquifer to poignantly illustrate the environmental impact of unchecked urban sprawl that threatens communities nationwide. (Laura Dunn, 2007, 93 min.)
