Garbage Warrior: THE GREEN
200784 minsColor
Oliver Hodge, Director
As part of THE GREEN, Sundance Channel presents a series of documentary films focusing on timely and pressing environmental issues of the day.
For more than 35 years, maverick architect Michael Reynolds has been passionately creating self-sustaining buildings from simple natural materials and the detritus of consumer society: tires, beer cans, glass and plastic bottles. These off-the-grid “earthships” utilize simple natural phenomena — gravity, radiation, convection — and have no sewage pipes, water pipes or electricity lines. Filmmaker Oliver Hodge profiles a true visionary and his battles to overturn the inflexible zoning and housing laws that endangered his creations.
