The timely new documentary “The Encampments” brings viewers into the Columbia University encampments and captures the spirit of the student protests, without the media spin we see so often in commercial reporting. Laura sits down with the co-director and two students featured in the film to discuss how the film came to be, and where the situation stands today.
