Citizens Against Basswood

About This Movie

Citizens Against Basswood is this quirky little documentary that stitches together found audio from the '80s. It’s funny how these neighbors band together over something as mundane as trees. I mean, who knew planting a few saplings could spark such a passionate outcry? The pacing meanders, much like the conversations between these concerned citizens, making it feel real and relatable. The atmosphere? It’s nostalgic, capturing that small-town vibe where everyone knows everyone’s business. The performances, if you can call them that, are raw and genuine, allowing the comedy to emerge naturally. It’s distinctive for its subject matter – who else is tackling tree planting as an issue? A peculiar little gem that you wouldn't expect to find in a typical collection.
