God Save the Green

About This Movie

So, 'God Save the Green' is this documentary from 2013 that dives into the world of urban gardening. It’s not flashy, which is kind of refreshing in a way. You feel that rawness, a genuine approach to the subject. The pacing is a bit leisurely, which allows you to soak in the atmosphere of the community gardens and the people behind them. There’s something almost poetic about the way they capture the struggle of maintaining green spaces in concrete jungles. The interviews are heartfelt, and you can tell the filmmakers really connected with their subjects. It's distinctive in how it blends activism with personal stories, making it more than just a documentary about plants. It feels like a movement, almost.
