"Two ex-revolutionaries [from Vancouver] living underground [in Toronto] have their lives turned upside down by a sexy young radical who goes from smashing SUVs to fighting gentrification with firebombs." (www.imdb.com/title/tt0832906/)

If you hang around activist communities you'll probably enjoy this film. Although, watch out for the trailer - it's pretty horrible & doesn't do the movie any favors.  (This film review has a pretty decent summary though:  http://exclaim.ca/Reviews/Film/reg_harkema-monkey_warfare-2)

TRIGGER WARNING:  the film is fairly Eurocentric & hetereonormative... kinda like some social justice circles (OH SNAP!?)
