Occupy Sandy, a charitable coordinated relief effort organized by a coalition of Occupy Wall Street members, has released a touching short film on the impact of Hurricane Sandy and their efforts to bring aid to those struggling with the storm’s aftermath.

Sheepshead resident Michael Rodriquez has nothing but high praise for Occupy Sandy.

The short film features the story of resident Mike Rodriguez, a local man who discusses the storm’s impact on his home, his pets, and his personal experiences in dealing with insurers, banks, and FEMA.

As for the efforts of Occupy Sandy, Mike fully endorses them by saying, “[They're] doing a terrific job,” noting that they have provided food, flashlights, and able hands in helping Mike clean out his house.
