The Garden Movie

Ellen and I watched The Garden, about the south central famers in LA and their struggle to maintain a community garden in the City.  I found that I had an interesting internal struggle between my values for both public and private property.  The clash of ideals is portrayed well in the film and makes for a useful foil for anyone involved in the public — private discourse in Cities.  As well, if you appreciate gardening and value the process and rhythms of life required to grow your own food you will find the film inspiring.
