DIVIDE IN CONCORD

This vibrant documentary follows the events leading up to a vote on whether or not to ban single-serving plastic water bottles in a town known for being the birthplace of the revolutionary war, Concord, Massachusetts. Eightyfour- year-old Jean Hill leads the charge to ban the bottles in the name of the environment and fighting corporate control. On the other side of the issue, Adriana Cohen, model-turned-pundit and regular Fox News contributor, fights for what she sees as an attack on personal freedom in her town. Filmmaker/ activist Michael Moore loved the film, gushing, “A fascinating, entertaining look at how persistence and citizen action still means something in a corporate-controlled society.”
