LITTERBUG

Now through July 29

An independent film shot in Detroit using almost no grid electricity, Litterbug premiered in March at the Burton Theatre, as part of the first annual Detroit Independent Film Festival. With the goal of making a feature movie spending no money, using no grid electricity,
creating no garbage and on a tight three month deadline, the film was a true experiment in radical
green production. This 87 minute comedy features some of Detroit’s best actors and improvisers
and a soundtrack provided by a dozen Detroit bands and electronic musicians.

Movie price: $5
