When polluting Leaf Blowers take over a city, blanketing it with siren-pitched noise and blasting hazardous particulates into the air we breathe, eventually the citizens say enough! Quiet Orinda depicts how five Orinda families suffer from the effects of leaf blower noise and air pollution, and what can be done about it. Its the first community-oriented documentary dealing with this important health and lifestyle issue, making its debut here at the California Independent Film Festival!

The Quiet Orinda community group is organizing to effect a ban of the use of leaf blowers in Orinda, as have scores of other cities across the USA: quietorinda.com
