The Healing Gardens of New York  /is a documentary looks at lives and 
communities transformed by urban gardens that were created in response 
to crime, neglect and poverty. Director Alexandra Isles captures a 
variety of gardens---ranging from a small asphalt triangle in Times 
Square to a spacious field on Rikers Island---and the remarkable people 
who tend them.

The film is having two New York screenings in June:

*June 6, 7:30 p.m.

Post-screening discussion with director Alexandra Isles; James Jiler, 
Director of the GreenHouse Project at Rikers Island; Sonny Watson, 
founding member, Taqwa Community Farm; and Gwenn Fried, horticulture 
therapist at Rusk Institute and Project Find.
