The Lake Placid Center for the Arts Film Series continues with The Garden on Friday, April 30 at 7:30pm. An engaging look at the famous political and social battle over the largest community garden in the U.S (located in south central Los Angeles). The politics of power and greed (backroom deals, land developing, green politics, money) tragically intersect with working class families who rely on this communal garden for their livelihood. The film exposes the fault lines in American society and raises crucial and challenging question about liberty, equality, and justice for the poorest and most vulnerable among us.
