From the makers of King Corn comes this funny and poignant documentary about
unlikely environmentalists and creation of Bostons first residential green building
From the co-creators and stars of the Peabody-winning hit King Corn comes a timely
documentary. Funny and poignant, The Greening of Southie is a story of bold ideas,
unlikely environmentalists, and the key to climate change. Set on the storied streets of South
Boston, The Greening of Southie is a feature film about Bostons first residential green building
as seen by the men and women who set out to construct it. What happens when you have to
build the city of tomorrow today? When things start to go wrong, a young developer has to
keep the project from unraveling. Funny and poignant, The Greening of Southie is a story of
bold ideas, new environmentalists, and the future of urban America. (USA, 2009, 73 min.)
