Synopsis by Jennifer Lackman
A chronicle of the Sir George Williams University riot in Montreal during February 1969, told through interviews with survivors as well as newsreel footage and audio recordings, of how a peaceful student sit-in in protest of professor Perry Anderson's allegedly racist behavior escalated into a two-week occupation that destroyed the ninth floor computer lab and sent millions of computer punch cards tumbling into the street.
