Imagine going an entire year without generating any trash. An American did just that on a bet.Their experience is recorded in an award-winning documentary film, ‘The Clean Bin Project’ that examines the problem of waste in our consumer society.‘The Clean Bin Project’ will screen on Sunday as part of the Bermuda Documentary Film Festival Weekend Film Series, along with an Italian comedy, ‘Salt of Life’.The environmental documentary tells the story of partners Jen and Grant who compete to see who can swear off consumerism and produce the least amount of garbage in a whole year.Their competition is set against an examination of the serious issue of waste reduction as it relates to both the marine and onshore environments.The film has won awards at several film festivals including Vail, Projecting Change, FilmShift and Bend (Oregon).‘The Salt of Life’ is writer, director and actor Gianni Di Gregorio’s humorous follow-up to the 2010 sleeper hit, ‘Mid-August-Lunch’, which screened recently at the Weekend Film Series.“The film is a sparkling comic ode to the ladies in his life to whom he is invisible, regardless of age or relation,” said Bermuda Docs director Duncan Hall. “Watching his friends attract beautiful young women on the sun-kissed streets of Rome’s Trastavere neighbourhood, Gianni tries his polite, utterly gracious best to generate some kind of extra-curricular love life with both hilarious and poignant results.”The film, in Italian with English subtitles, has screened at the Berlin and Karlovy Vary film festivals, among others, and will soon be released in the United States.‘The Clean Bin Project’ will screen at 3pm and will be followed by a question-and-answer session with Vanese Flood-Gordon of Government’s Waste Management Section and Kevin Lanthier, representing Greenrock.‘The Salt of Life’ will screen at 5.15pm.Tickets are $15 and can be purchased in the Oceans Gift Shop at the Bermuda Underwater Exploration Institute or by calling 297-7314.Trailers of the films can be viewed at www.bermudadocs.com.
