    Set on the rugged streets of South Boston, THE GREENING OF SOUTHIE is the story of a revolutionary green building, and the union teams who bring it to life.

    From wheatboard cabinetry to recycled steel, the Macallen Building is something different -- a leader in the emerging field of environmentally friendly design. But building green has its challenges, and the job-site has its skeptics. When things on the building start to go wrong, the young development team has to keep the project from unraveling.

    This is part of the UMBS weekly Film Series. All movies are free and open to the public.
