The Real Social Network

This documentary presents a detailed account of the UK student protests that unfolded between November 2010 and the spring of 2011. It focuses on a collective of filmmakers who gained exclusive access to the behind-the-scenes meetings of London students as they organized protests against government cuts.

Through their efforts, these students not only occupied universities but also executed software hacks and shut down banks. The film illustrates how this new form of radicalism was fueled by technology and collaboration, ultimately contributing to a larger global movement. For collectors, this documentary offers a unique perspective on contemporary activism and the role of digital tools in social movements.
