Would have waited a year more to see a proper documentary about this.
Edén Villa (pseudonym) and anonymous Minneapolis residents evade and resist the paramilitary occupation of their city, in a winter landscape where masked agents abduct children, residents travel in trunks, shackled prisoners are loaded onto airplanes within eyesight of vacationers, and bicyclists track the movements of an invading force.

A really strong close to the short films watched today, really well done and tackles a polarising topic. Would’ve happily watched a lot more of this.
Absolutely horrific and upsetting.
