coming up at boston's independent moviehouses - the brattle, harvard film archive, mfa and coolidge

Green's acclaimed first feature focuses on a multi-racial group of preteens in the post-industrial wasteland of Winston-Salem in Green's native North Carolina. The film that established his now trademark poetic lyricism, George Washington artfully evokes both the lazy rhythms of summer in the South and the ever-shifting currents of emotion that propel the story. The cast of local non-actors captures the pitfalls and dangers of navigating the years between childhood innocence and adult responsibility with wisdom and grace. final showing find a trailer
