Geneva Film Festival & Geneva Green Market Garbage Movie

A good Sized Audience

We just returned from watching the Garbage Movie presented by the Geneva Green Market and the Geneva Film Festival. It was shown outside at River Park along the Fox River in downtown Geneva, Il.- a few blocks from our house. The seating was stadium style and the seats were large river stones and lawn chairs. Very nice, cool night. The movie was humorous, I would recommend it. However, I was unaware of the stripping of the mountains in West Virginia. Quite alarming.
