ABOUT THE FILM

“Greed, to take back the popular phrase, is not good. It is a homicidal force.”

Shot on the front lines and meeting spaces of the Occupy Movement in New York, Boston, and Washington, D.C., from its earliest days through the end of January 2012, "American Autumn: an Occudoc" is an inside-looking-out view of the Occupy Movement.

With interviews and insight from key organizers, thinkers and activists including Medea Benjamin, David Degraw, Dr. Margaret Flowers, Lee Camp, Naomi Klein, Nathan Schneider, Ashley Sanders, Vlad Teichberg, Sgt. Shamar Thomas, Dr. Cornel West and Kevin Zeese, among others, writer and director Dennis Trainor Jr weaves commentary and a fearless style that often puts the viewer right between police and protesters.

Dennis Trainor, Jr. has been writing and producing editorial video commentary since 2007, producing 800 videos during that span that have garnered 30 million views on YouTube. He was first video blogger to be employed by a Presidential candidate, working for Dennis Kucinich in 2008. "American Autumn: an Occudoc" is his full-length field documentary.

While the U.S., EU and their allies are enabling Rojava—the strongest force against Islamic State— to fall, it is vital for internationalists to continue to support this beacon of democracy and liberation.
