Madrid On The Brink: S25 → S29


This short film chronicles the events of September 25-29th in Madrid,
Spain where tens of thousands of people have taken to the streets to
demand the resignation of the government and an end to police
brutality. Many of the protests ended in clashes with the police.
Since the stand off began on September 25th , the images of police
brutality have travelled the world over, shocking and inspiring people
across Europe and leading to an international day of action on
September 29th. This film tells the story of why so many people took
to the streets and follows these events as they unfolded. Go to globaluprisings.org for the full series of mini-documenaries about reactions to the economic crisis around the world.
