Christopher B PortraitTREASURES OF THE GREENBELT

Produced and Directed Judy Irving and Christopher Beaver

Green Rolling Hills"Everyone remembers a green place, a place that's gone now. Maybe there was a special tree you used to climb or a place where you could lie on your back and look up at the sky," begins this remarkable film that celebrates the sheer joy and wonder of open countryside.

Narrated by noted television host and newspaper columnist, Jerry Graham, Treasures of the Greenbelt features stunning aerial photography, seasonal "special effects," and an original score by composer, Gary Remal, that received a Northern California Emmy for Best Original Music.

This film extols the simple beauty of rural countryside wherever it's found . . . in the San Francisco Bay Area and by example, throughout the world.

Treasures of the Greenbelt provides a hopeful vision for people everywhere who are striving to protect the legacy of open and undeveloped countryside.

Made with the cooperation of the Greenbelt Alliance.
