Spectacle productions need help making a film on the political thinker Murray Bookchin, the founder of the social ecology movement. Please visit here.

BOOKCHIN ON BOOKCHIN is an independent feature-length documentary about the life and times of Murray Bookchin, who made history as the founder of the social ecology movement and was a significant social theorist on the Left. Bookchin was an anti-capitalist and an advocate for the decentralization of society along ecological and democratic lines. He also called for alternative energies and wrote prophetically about pesticides, cancer and obesity.

Our aim is to make a film that deeply explores the influences and experiences that have helped shape one of the most unique and distinctive voices in modern political thinking.

The documentary will explore the development of Murray's politics through his personal experiences, drawing off hours and hours of filming. We have been granted unparalleled access to Bookchin, including exclusive interview footage at his home in Vermont and his final public appearance in Montreal.
