Other Cinema: Born in Flames

Sunday October 8th 2017, Other Cinema: Born in Flames by Lizzie Borden (1983), 90 minutes. Doors 20:45, Film 21:00. Discussion afterwards

The movie that rocked the foundations of the early Indie film world, this provocative, thrilling and still-relevant classic is a comic fantasy of female rebellion set in America ten years after the Second American Revolution. When Adelaide Norris, the black radical founder of the Woman’s Army, is mysteriously killed, a diverse coalition of women – across all lines of race, class, and sexual preference – emerges to blow the System apart.
