To celebrate the 40th anniversary of the May 1968 Protests, The Bridge will be holding a special two-part film screening this Spring; the films will deal both directly with the events of May ‘68, as well as with the larger theme of leftist political and social struggles in France and the US.

On Thursday, May 22nd, we’ll watch Can Dialectics Break Bricks?, the classic situationist film by René Viénet in which a martial-arts film has been re-dubbed with dialogue reflecting radical social and political concerns. We’ll also screen Pig Power, an impressionistic document in which members of the Black Panther party discuss their conflicts with the police, and New Left Note, Saul Levine’s frenetic kaleidoscopic portrait of women’s liberation and the antiwar movement.

Important Scheduling Change

Please note that the second part of this screening has been postponed; these videos will now show on Thursday, June 5. Click here for information about Ni Dieu ni maître, Part 2.
