- Amid the aftershocks of socialism's failure, a skeptical American watches three Croatian anarchists fight to create a new leftism.
- A dynamic story of how students and immigrant janitors took on-and defeated-one of the most powerful corporations in the world, "Occupation" documents the historic three-week sit-in by the Harvard Living Wage Campaign. The Campaign won unprecedented gains for low-wage workers at the world's most affluent university and catapulted the living wage movement to the center of public attention. In demonstrating one local response to corporate power in an age of globalization, "Occupation" powerfully depicts how people from dramatically different backgrounds were able to raise their hands together in victory.
- "We finally see what is happening to us. And what do they do? They fire on us with teargas, a weapon for collective blinding." -Simona Twice the people went into the streets. Twice the police drove them away. What began as protests became uprisings. In the once-prosperous industrial city of Maribor, Slovenia, anger over political corruption became unruly revolt. This participatory documentary places audiences in the midst of the third and largest uprising as crowds surround and ransack City Hall under a hailstorm of tear gas canisters. Soon the mayor will resign-and the movement will spread to cities across the country. The Maribor Uprisings takes up urgent questions raised by these events, and by uprisings elsewhere, from the Arab Spring, through Paris, to Black Lives Matter. What sparks such popular outrage? How are participants swept up in-and then changed by-confrontations with police? Could something like this happen in your city?
