EARTH DAYS
HAWAII PREMIERE
It is now all the rage in the age of Al Gore and Barack Obama, but can you remember
when everyone in America was not “Going Green?” Visually stunning, vastly enter-
taining and awe-inspiring, EARTH DAYS looks back to the dawn and development of
the modern environmental movement – from its post-war rustlings in the 1950s and
the 1962 publication of Rachel Carson’s incendiary bestseller Silent Spring, to the first
wildly successful 1970 Earth Day celebration and the subsequent firestorm of political
action. Directed by acclaimed documentarian Robert Stone (Oswald's Ghost, Guerrilla:
The Taking of Patty Hearst)EARTH DAYS is both a poetic meditation on humanity's
complex relationship with nature and an engaging history of the revolutionary
achievements – and missed opportunities of groundbreaking eco-activism.

NO IMPACT MAN / INGREDIENTS
INGREDIENTS
WORLD PREMIERE
At the focal point of this movement, and of this film, are the farmers and chefs who are
creating a truly sustainable food system. Their collaborative work has resulted in great
tasting food and an explosion of consumer awareness about the benefits of eating
local. Attention being paid to the local food movement comes at a time when the fail-
ings of our current industrialized food system are becoming all too clear. For the first
time in history, our children’s generation is expected to have a shorter lifespan than our
own. The quality, taste and nutritional value of the food we eat has dropped sharply
over the last fifty years. Shipped from ever-greater distances, we have literally lost
sight of where our food comes from and in the process we've lost a vital connection to
our local community and to our health. A feature-length documentary,
INGREDIENTS illustrates how people around the country are working
to revitalize that connection.

THE LAST BEEKEEPER
HAWAII PREMIERE
Bees are vanishing. Examining the enormity of this loss, Jeremy Simmons' documen-
tary THE LAST BEEKEEPER follows the lives of three commercial beekeepers (from
South Carolina, Montana, and Washington) over the course of a year as they struggle
with Colony Collapse Disorder. When they take their bees to California's enormous
annual almond pollination (an event so large it requires nearly all the bees in the US),
it becomes painfully and poignantly clear the bind they are in. "If all the bees die,
what do you have to live for?" asks one of the beekeepers. It's a question for all of us.
