'The Square': Shooting a Revolution

Filmmaker Jehane Noujaim (Control Room) was detained, had cameras destroyed and footage lost as she documented the Egyptian revolution for her film The Square. Noujaim and activist/actor Khalid Abdalla talk about the process of being inside a revolution as it's happening and using cameras 'as weapons' to tell the world their story.
