Strength of the Storm (Films From 2012 Reels for Rights Screening)
The Strength of the Storm is a call to action. It gives a personal, human account of the actual, everyday struggles after Irene and the efforts of families to get back on their feet. The film shows the needs and voices of Vermonters after our most recent disaster, as well as thoughts about wide-spread poverty and effects of climate change. Ultimately, the film shows what people are doing to organize in response, so that people are not only able to recover from the storm, but make sure their communities Put People First in the days after the storm.
Produced by Vermont Workers’ Center, Directed by Rob Koier
