Garbage Warrior
(2007, dir. Olive Hodge, 86 mins, NR)
This documentary opens with maverick architect Michael Reynolds doing pull-ups in his Earthship, a self-sustaining dwelling made from natural materials and the detritus of consumerism: tires, beer cans and plastic bottles. Filmmaker Oliver Hodge profiles a passionate, sometimes curmudgeonly visionary as he takes his architectural methods to tsunami-torn countries and battles to overturn inflexible zoning laws in the name of sustainability. Shot over three years and in four countries, Garbage Warrior is an often-humorous exploration of what it means to go against the grain.
