SUMMARY:Film: Becoming Wild
DESCRIPTION:(VA) (Four Mile Run Conservancy) Join the Alexandria Film Festival and Four Mile Run Conservancy for the world premiere of “Becoming Wild\, a meditation on beauty in the natural world\,” a documentary by award-winning\, local filmmaker Jane Pittman. In an Alexandria neighborhood transformed by gentrification and loss of green space\, a backyard becomes a sanctuary and a teacher – alive with creatures who ask for nothing more than a place to live. Through seasons of change\, “Becoming Wild\, a meditation on beauty in the natural world” explores how beauty survives – when we choose to nurture it – and how ordinary people can help rebuild the natural world right where they live.
