4th Tuesday Films presents:
Back to the Garden
In
1988, filmmaker Kevin Tomlinson filmed and interviewed a group of
back-to-the-land "hippies" -- living off-grid, insulated and isolated from
mainstream culture.
In 2006, he tracked down his subjects again to find out what had become of their families' utopian plans and dreams.
The film captures a time-lapse view of these back-to-the-landers told
with moving personal stories of non-conforming tribal families -- with lots
of freedom but little cash, of unflinching political activism in the
midst of small-town, rural America, and hippie kids who today ask
whether free love was really free.
Tuesday, August 31, 7:00pm
909 12 Street, Sacramento

COMING UP on Media Edge:
Episode 273
(July 31 - August 2)
Segment 1: "Occupation 101"
(90 minutes)
An award-winning, thought-provoking and powerful documentary film on the root causes of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. The film presents a comprehensive analysis of the facts and hidden truths surrounding the never ending controversy and dispels many of its long-perceived myths and misconceptions. It also details life under Israeli military rule, the role of the United States in the conflict, and the major obstacles that stand in the way of a lasting and viable peace. The roots of the conflict are explained through first-hand on-the-ground experiences from leading Middle East scholars, peace activists, journalists, religious leaders and humanitarian workers.
Segment 2: "Hands in Peace"
(11 minutes)
Hands in Peace builds peace among diverse communities by adapting the ancient Greek Olympics for children. The children celebrate our common humanity and cultural diversity through non-competitive festivals like this one held in Sacramento.
Segment 3: "The Poetry of Listening"
(14 minutes)
A short documentary featuring Israeli and Palestinian poets and storytellers from Gaza to Tel Aviv.
