This documentary chronicles the spectacular defeat of Slobodan MiloÅ¡ević in October 2000–not by force of arms, as many had predicted, but by an ingenious nonviolent strategy of honest elections and massive civil disobedience, including rock concerts, the internet, spray-painted slogans, and a willingness to be arrested. Followed by a Q&A with activist Paul Engler, founding director of the Center for the Working Poor and co-author of This is an Uprising: How Nonviolent Revolt Is Shaping the Twenty-First Century.
