The First Movie About the Power of Hashtags: #Whilewewatch

by Awl Sponsors

When you hear the phrase “We are the 99%,” the first thing that probably comes to mind is Occupy Wall Street. The September, 2011 movement, which protested social and economic disparity, was covered by pretty much every single print and digital media outlet on a national and global scale. It became a widespread phenomenon, garnering attention that reached the ends of the earth and spurred derivative movements along the way. But who started it?

#Whilewewatch is the first definitive film to emerge from Zuccotti Park that gives us a gripping insight into the media revolution and the masterminds of those who made #OccupyWallStreet a reality against all odds.
