Woodside documentary producer Steve Brown’s latest film, “Occupy the Farm,” is being released in Berkeley on Nov. 7 and then in New York and Pasadena, he said.

Directed by veteran filmmaker Todd Darling, “Occupy the Farm” is about hundreds of urban agriculture activists who objected to planned development at UC Berkeley’s Gill Tract in the Berkeley/Albany area.

On Earth Day 2012, they swarmed and planted thousands of seedlings on the land before riot police arrived.

The film is being shown at UA Berkeley 7 from Nov. 7 to 13.

Mr. Brown is currently working on a grassroots campaign that largely relies on social media to increase the demand for more showings.

After completing his documentary, “Spark: A Burning Man Story,” Mr. Brown founded Ignite Channel, described on the website as an “independent film studio and media site devoted to artists and innovators.”
