Gentrification comes in many forms. On the

tiny island of Martha’s Vineyard, where

presidents and celebrities vacation, trophy

homes threaten to destroy the island’s

unique character.

Twelve years in the making, ONE BIG HOME

follows one carpenter’s journey to understand

the trend toward giant houses. When he feels

complicit in wrecking the place he calls home,

he takes off his tool belt and picks up a

camera. Bumping up against angry

homeowners and builders who look the other

way, he works with his community and

attempts to pass a new bylaw to

limit house size.
