VIDEO: A particularly dark and dramatic depiction of Hong Kong’s Umbrella Revolution

If you thought you’d seen apocalyptic footage of the police crackdown on Hong Kong’s Occupy Central movement, think again! This truly moving, dark and dramatic compilation of clips shows a short timeline of the student and broader Occupy Central protests set to Lorde’s “Everybody Wants to Rule the World”.

Finishing on the famous quote of unknown origin, “It’s better to die fighting for freedom than to live life in chains”, this ominous offering from Vimeo user Drib Enilno is both sinister and inspiring.
