Won the Most Popular Film at the Vancouver International Film Festival

Shot over three years in the USA, England, India and New Mexico, Garbage Warrior is a feature length documentary film telling the epic story of maverick architect Michael Reynolds, his crew of alternative house builders from New Mexico, and their effort to introduce different ways of living. A snapshot of contemporary geo-politics and an inspirational tale of working with the bureaucracy, Garbage Warrior is above all an intimate portrait of an extraordinary individual and his dream of changing the world!
