> Mad City Chickens
>
> Tuesday, August 25, 7pm
> Santa Barbara Public Library / Faulkner Gallery on Anapamu Street in  
> Santa Barbara

>
> With special guest Christine Heinrichs, author of "How to Raise  
> Chickens“ and “How to Raise Poultry“ (and she is featured in the  
> film!) ... plus Katherine Anderson, local chicken expert from Blue  
> Oak Ranch, and other local chicken folks!
>
> Mad City Chickens is a sometimes wacky,
> sometimes serious look at the people who keep urban
> chickens in their backyards. From chicken experts and
> authors to a rescued landfill hen or an inexperienced
> family that decides to take the poultry plunge—and
> even a mad scientist and giant hen taking to the
> streets—it’s a humorous and heartfelt trip through the
> world of backyard chickendom.
>
> HIGHLIGHTS INCLUDE:
> ~ Mother Earth News Editor-in-Chief, Cheryl Long
> ~ Leading bird flu expert, Dr. Michael Greger
> ~ Rare behind-the-scenes at Murray McMurray Hatchery
> ~ Backyard Poultry editor, Elaine Belanger
> ~ Society for the Preservation of Poultry Antiquities, Christine  
> Heinrichs (coming to the Santa Barbara screening!)
>
> ~ Stunning results from nutritional study on pastured eggs
> ~ Follow an urban family for an entire year as they take the poultry  
> plunge
> ~ A factory farm hen that refused to die even after being gassed and  
> dumped at a landfill
>
> PLUS… coops, birds, eggs, art, images from the Seattle Tilth group,  
> founding members of the Mad City Chickens
> group, a California musical hen, a Texas life-saving flock… and yes…  
> even a mad professor and a giant chicken find
> their way into the mix.
>
> “I never thought I would sit here mesmerized, openmouthed over a  
> chicken movie,” declared one audience member at the end of the  
> evening. Neither did I.
> - Kristian Knutsen, Isthmus Daily Page
>
> “I think Mad City Chickens will be THE major film that will help  
> move chickens back to the city. Not only because people want a  
> closer connection to the food they eat, but because chickens are  
> fun, sweet and to hang out with chickens is much more fun than  
> watching TV.”
