SUMMARY:Born in Flames (1983)
DESCRIPTION:Directed by Lizzie Borden | USA | 80 min\n\nThe first feature f
 ilm by iconoclastic artist Lizze Borden\, Born in Flames was shot guerilla 
 style on weekends in pre-gentrification New York over a period of five year
 s. Set ten years after a socialist-democratic revolution in the United Stat
 es\, the film explores the ways that marginalized groups such as women\, pe
 ople of colour\, and queer people continued to be targeted and suppressed\,
  and the efforts of community-organized intersectional groups to fight back
 . The film follows two women-run pirate radio stations\, a women’s revolu
 tionary army\, and a socialist newspaper and focuses on the role that commu
 nication and direct action play in combating the propaganda of the ruling a
 uthorities. With a punk soundtrack and rebel sensibility\, Born in Flames r
 eminds us just how long the fight for equality for these marginalized group
 s has been ongoing and how far it has yet to go. We dedicate this film to w
 omen\, people of colour\, and LGBTQ people in Alberta and around the world 
 who continue to fight against governments that seek to minimize them\, impr
 ison them\, and erase them.\n\nWritten by Ben Rowe.\n\nRated R for brief ex
 plicit sexual content.\n\nPart of our Cinema of Resistance Series.\n\nhttps
