The Parking Lot Movie

If you are a fan of documentaries, you need to check out Meghan Eckman’s new documentary The Parking Lot Movie on parking lot attendant’s in Charlottesville, Virginia .

Hailed as the “most feel-good film” of the South by Southwest Film Festival, director Meghan Eckman’s irreverently funny debut celebrates a brotherhood of eccentric attendants who man a unique parking lot in Charlottesville, Virginia. From grad students to middle-age slackers, indie-rock musicians to surly philosophers, these overeducated part-timers wax profoundly about car culture and capitalism, seek vengeance against entitled patrons and thieves, and make fun of drunken jerks.

Check out other clips and deleted scenes on their Youtube channel and grab The Parking Lot Movie on DVD.
