Seeds, Hope and Concrete
Will Hommeyer, USA, documentary, 41 min., 2005
Canadian Premiere
 Green shoots of life crack through concrete! This documentary profiles innovative urban garden programs in North America’s largest cities. From Chicago, to New York to Toronto – communities are self-organizing food production programs that feed the mind, body and spirit. Immigrant farmer collectives adapt traditional agricultural practices in the heart of New York City, youth in Chicago oversee gardens that supply local restaurants and Toronto’s own Food Share carpets the city’s rooftops green. Seeds, Hope & Concrete is a sharp, focused and energetic look at a green revolution sprouting in our midst. – M.S.L
