Segment 1 -- "Peak Moment"
Rather than follow the customary American dream, Tammy and Logan sold their home and car, and moved to a bikeable/walkable neighborhood in Sacramento, California. After reading Derrick Jensen’s writings, this couple used Your Money or Your Life as a means to get out of debt and, they feel, regain their lives and their future. While they recount the psychological challenges of facing a future of declining resources, the catalyst that continues to move them forward is a dream of living in an affordable tiny house within a supportive community.
Segment 2 -- "Live From Tent City: The Last 21 Days"
On April 1, 2009, Emmy award-winning filmmaker Costa Mantis moved into Sacramento’s “tent city” to live with homeless people there. Now, for the first time, you can hear their stories and understand that - there but for the grace of God go I.
Segment 3 -- "Struggle"
This documentary, set primarily in Ohio, examines several conditions that lead to George W. Bush's victory in the 2004 Presidential election. This film places the audience right in the action with a unique "street level" perspective on the struggle to protest publicly or vote democratically in this society.
