A decade ago, South America experienced a continental economic collapse. The response from the street included protests, occupations, ballot-box revolutions, and finally, solutions. Now experiencing our own economic catastrophe, those same South American solutions can serve us well here in the North. The film, "Beyond Elections," presents a most complete, detailed, and informative documentary record of the economic democratization taking place throughout Latin America. Show it, watch it, and learn from it. ~ Ben Manski, Liberty Tree
Beyond Elections is a thoughtful exploration of how decentralized power structures can help communities thrive, as average citizens take responsibility for their own destinies.
~ Jason Stone, Resource Center of the Americas
"Beyond Elections proves that democracy can and should be more than casting a ballot every four years. This empowering documentary gives hopeful and concrete examples from around the Americas of people taking back the reigns of power and governing their own communities. Beyond Elections is a road map for social change, drawing from communal councils in Venezuela and social movements in Bolivia to participatory budgeting in Brazil and worker cooperatives in Argentina. The film gracefully succeeds in demonstrating that these grassroots examples of people's power can be applied anywhere. Particularly as activists in the US face the challenges of a Obama administration and an economic crisis, this timely documentary shows that the revolution can start today right in your own living room or neighborhood." ~ Ben Dangl, editor, Upside Down World & Toward Freedom
