One thing in particular sets Rebels apart from others of this type: it’s very calm, and not unnecessarily dramatized.

Restores one’s faith in the potential efficacy of social movements, even in the face of what appeared to be insurmountable odds.”

Although the film tells a local story about the San Francisco Bay Area, it reaches far beyond our little slice of the country.
