Waste Land Movie US Release

Great news! Waste Land, the documentary about Vik Muniz, is getting an official US release! Thanks to Arthouse Films for providing the dates, so look for your city below. The film opens in New York this week, and will be rolled out across the country through February 2011.

The movie was recently featured in a great New York Times article, along with a little bio about Vik. It was also covered in the Brazilian press, since the movie was shown at the Mostra de SP this past weekend. The film is slated for an early 2011 release in Brazil. Read more about the movie here and here.

I cannot stress enough how incredible this movie is. I saw it twice in theaters and told everyone I know to see it, so please go check it out! It is honestly one of the most wonderful, inspiring movies you will ever see.
