About the film:

Labor justice in the United States has long required fight after fight, and the individuals who have struggled for fair working conditions and compensation do so not only for themselves, but for generations of workers who will come after them.

In DOC NYC alumna Yael Bridge’s new film Who Moves America (2026), she examines the tense 2023 contract negotiations between UPS and its 340,000 unionized workers as they press the company for critical improvements to keep pace with changes in a fraught ecosystem.

Who Moves America (2026) had its world premiere at the 2026 True/False Film Festival.
