City of trees

Kramer, Brandon, (film director.). Holcomb, Charles, (on-screen participant.). Samuels, Michael, (on-screen participant.). Coleman, Steve, (on-screen participant.). Meridian Hill Pictures, (production company.). Passion River Films, (publisher.).

During the Great Recession, joblessness exceeds twenty percent East of the Anacostia River in Washington, DC. This documentary follows the intimate stories of Charles, Michael, and James, three long-term unemployed residents struggling to gain employment through 'shovel ready' green projects. When stimulus dollars run out, short term idealism clashes with day-to-day survival in the struggle to find a sense of purpose and place in a recovering economy.
