"Class Struggle in Palo Alto" joins the filmmaker in her run-down Saab as she attempts to explore the class elitism, contradictions and guilt she sees in her community and herself. In this tongue-in-cheek documentary, the filmmaker searches for a way to understand her relationship to the town she lives in, and to her own sentimental feelings for her doomed mobile home park. Includes footage of Miriam Patchen and Laurent Frantz and their protests.
