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, the USA, and around the world.

For the second part of our screening Thursday, June 5, we’ll check out Jean Genet in Chicago, Frédéric Moffat’s queer re-writing of the events surrounding the 1968 National Democratic Convention, followed by The Whole World is Watching, Raymond Pettibon’s feature-length 1988 video, created for the 20th anniversary of May ‘68. Referred to as the west coast’s “dubious homage” to the 60’s radical underground, it was produced with a dry apocalyptic crudity and starts a cast of notable musicians and art-punk figures such as Kim Gordon and Mike Watt.
