SIFF Cinema, Seattle Center
Description:
Community Cinema Seattle presents a special free community screening of CHICAGO 10, followed by discussion with local activists and politicians.
Saturday, October 4, 4-6pm, at SIFF Cinema in McCaw Hall, Seattle Center (321 Mercer Street at 3rd Avenue). Cosponsored by ITVS, KCTS, KBCS, RTM, SOCR, & SIFF.
Reclaim the Media is pleased to join Community Cinema Seattle to help launch their new schedule of free film screenings. The version of CHICAGO 10 shown at this screening event has been modified from its original feature length to make more time for audience discussion.
Written and directed by Brett Morgen (THE KID STAYS IN THE PICTURE), CHICAGO 10 presents contemporary history with a forced perspective, mixing bold and original animation with extraordinary archival footage that explores the build-up to and unraveling of the Chicago Conspiracy Trial. Set to the music of revolution, then and now, CHICAGO 10 is a parable of hope, courage and ultimate victory, the story of young Americans speaking out and taking a stand in the face of an oppressive and armed government.
At the 1968 Democratic Convention, protesters, denied permits for demonstrations, repeatedly clashed with the Chicago Police Department, who waged a week-long terror campaign that resulted in riots witnessed live by a television audience of over 50 million. The events had a polarizing effect on the entire country.
Our Seattle event will include local speakers to discuss ways that Seattle citizens can peacefully express their Constitutional rights to protest.
SIFF Cinema is located in the Nelsholm Family Lecture Hall on the lower level of Marion Oliver McCaw Hall at Seattle Center. The main entrance is directly below the skybridge from the Mercer garage at the Corner of 3rd Avenue North and Mercer Street. In addition to the Mercer garage, parking is available on the street (metered and zoned) or in adjacent pay parking lots and garages.
ITVS Community Cinema Seattle is presented by The City of Seattle Office for Civil Rights, KCTS9 Television Seattle, KBCS 91.3 FM Community Radio, Reclaim the Media and the Seattle International Film Festival.
Free. To reserve seats, call 1-800-930-6060 and press 3, or email chicago10@communitycinema.org
