one more movie i think bears showing
is a film, 'one night of fire' about
activists creating an underground street
party in nyc.  http://www.youtube.com/user/MarkWildmanRead
full disclosure... i had a great time at the event.

Although not urban and not new, I still think "Fight in the Fields" is a 
great movie for teaching organizing (and I've recently used it with 
planning students and it raises all the right questions).

Hi,

Are you looking for U.S. cases?  I've used "Thirst", "Shape of Water" 
and Bullfrog films has a number of good ones. I'm previewing "The 
Philadelphia Story", which looks promising.
