Discussion: Director, Velcrow Ripper and “Sacred Economics” Author Charles Eisenstein. Over the course of a year, Occupy Love travels to the sites of economic and environmental protest that made 2011 an extraordinary year of change. Documenting the everyday heroes of the Arab Spring, European Summer and worldwide Occupy camps, the film paints an inspiring portrait of the growing movement toward lateral forms of power. Focusing on the compassion buttressing these social movements, Ripper poses that fundamental change can only come through love. Concert Featuring: Chris Birkett, Robert Graham and Glen Alan.
