How do you take a seemingly dry subject like the threat land development poses to the environment and turn it into a compelling film? It never even seems like a challenge for director Laura Dunn in this gorgeous, philosophical, even-handed and endlessly stimulating documentary. A movie that deserved considerably more attention than it got.
