Plot Outline

Award winning documentary filmmaker Ellen Bruno called Uncommon Knowledge "A beautifully crafted and poetic political commentary."  Jon Garfield, Media Studies Professor said, "Stunning visuals and leaps of insight, this film is as entertaining as it is illuminating. "

This compelling and poetic documentary takes place inside the University of California as plans unfold to shut down its historic San Francisco campus. A unique view of privatization, filmmaker Eliza Hemenway worked at the campus for over six years. Wondering why a public university was closing a campus in favor of private development, she picked up her camera and began to film. Uncommon Knowledge is a revealing look into higher education and a hauntingly beautiful portrait of a campus and the community it served.

Edgy original soundtrack by Tim Barsky and Everyday Theater with additional music by The Toids.
