DESCRIPTION:We Are The 99 % (26 min.) Australian \nBy Shabnam Hameed \nThis film was 
 taken over two months at Zuccotti Park by Australian trade unionist Shabnam 
 Hameed. It shows the views of participants in the Occupy movement and what 
 their visions are. They face repression as they are brutally attacked and 
 evicted. This raises questions about whether it is possible to create a 
 “just society” within the 
 US.\nhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=un3v6qbZw9o

 (The Crab Factory Ship) 110 min. (1953) Japan \nBy Director-Writer Sou 
 Yamamura, based on the novel by Takiji Kobayashi \nThis film never before 
 screened in the US is about the horrendous conditions of a crab factory 
 ship. The migrant workers lived and worked under hellish conditions and 
 some died from management abuse. They unite and fight back against their 
 exploitation. The author of the novel, Takiji Kobayashi, was arrested by 
 Japanese police and was killed by intense torture at the age of 29 in 1933, 
 four years after he wrote Kani-kou-sen.\nSee
