Filmography: Directorial Debut
How will Boston’s rough-and-tumble construction workers take
to being labeled “environmentalists”? Who will pay $1 million
for a condo made from junk cars and straw bales? Will the
building earn a Gold LEED (Leadership in Energy Efficient
Design) certified rating? Funny and poignant, the latest film
from the producing team and stars of King Corn, follows the
triumphs and hardships of the salty construction team that sets
out to build the first residential green building in Boston…and
more or less succeeds.
Statement from Curt Ellis, Producer
Ian Cheney and I became friends
through a series of foolishly
ambitious carpentry projects. We
also studied environmental issues
together at Yale, and wanted to find a
public voice for the issues we’d
Curt Ellis and Ian Cheney
become passionate about. It seemed
to us like our culture invested too much worry in cell phones
and stock options, and ignored the fundamental things our lives
really depend on: food, clothing, and shelter.
So our first film project, King Corn, looked at one of those
staples, and The Greening of Southie looks at another. We’re
launching an effort in April to show the film in union halls
around the country in honor of Earth Week in what may be our
most foolishly ambitious carpentry project yet.
