JCTC Merseles Studio in Jersey City, NJGolden Door International Film Festival
CITY OF TREES will screen at the 6th annual Golden Door International Film Festival in Jersey City, NJ, on September 24th at 6pm. Tickets are $10 and available for purchase here.
ABOUT GOLDEN DOOR INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL, September 22-25:
Founded in 2010 by actor Bill Sorvino and a small group of dyed in the wool Jersey Cityites. The renegade band of “old time Jersey City” residents set out on a mission to shine a light on Jersey City, New Jersey and to provide an equal platform to all filmmakers well known and otherwise. Since that time, Golden Door International Film Festival has anchored itself as a cultural focal point of Jersey City. Set with the backdrop of the beautiful New York City skyline, this four day film festival holds the opportunity for filmmakers, actors and crew to network with colleagues and share their work with the public in the heart of the NYC indie filmmaking landscape.

USFWS National Conservation Training Center in Shepherdstown, WVChesapeake Watershed Forum Screening
This year’s keynote presentation included a panel discussion after viewing the City of Trees film. We learned what sounds like a simple goal — putting people back to work by planting trees — becomes complicated by local racial tensions, a community’s distrust of outsiders, and a fast-approaching deadline before the grant money runs out. Filmed in an unflinching and compelling verité approach over the course of more than two years, CITY OF TREES thrusts viewers into the inspiring but messy world of job training and the paradoxes changemakers face in urban communities every day.

Dumbarton Oaks Research Library in Washington,, DCDumbarton Oaks Screening
"CITY OF TREES opened up a discussion about the relationship between urban residents and their parks. Can planting trees improve community engagement and participation in their own neighborhoods? Although our screening was small, it included a number of recent college graduates who are currently exploring ways to get involved in urban environmental issues. I think the film and discussion got them very interested and invested in the link between social justice and environmental sustainability in a way that a lecture or book could not."
