Liverpool Indymedia

Screening of '4th World War' at Edge Hill College

G | 30.06.2004 20:51 | Analysis | Education | Liverpool

The ground breaking film '4th World War' is showing on Friday night (2nd July) at
7.45pm in the Rose Theatre at Edge Hill College in Ormskirk. I know it's a
bit of a trek, but well worth it if you have the time.


***********
'THE FOURTH WORLD WAR' - A FILM THAT TAKES US WHERE THE MAINSTREAM
MEDIA CANNOT GO

check out the trailer - www.bignoisetactical.org/flash/movs/4WW.mov

The Fourth World War was shot by award-winning New York film collective
Big Noise Films on the frontlines of struggles spanning five
continents. It is the untold human story of men and women who resist
being annihilated in the current global conflict.

While American airwaves are crowded with talk of a new world war,
narrated by generals and filmed from the noses of bombs, the human face
of war is rarely seen. The Fourth World War weaves together the images
and voices of the war on the ground - from the front lines of struggles
in Mexico, Argentina, South Africa, Palestine, Korea, 'the North' from
Seattle to Genoa, and the 'War on Terror' in New York and Iraq.

The product of over two years of filming, The Fourth World War is a new
kind of film for a new world. The intensity and immediacy of its images
are beyond anything corporate television can shoot, the intimacy and
passion of its stories are beyond anything it can feel. Narrated by
Tony Award winner Suheir Hammad and singer Michael Franti of Spearhead,
it is a radical story of hope and human connection in the face of a war
that shatters and divides.

The Fourth World War premiered in four sold out shows at The
International Documentary Festival in Amsterdam (IDFA) in late
November, and it has already sent shockwaves through the independent
film world. The Fourth World War was launched in North America at the
Santa Barbara Film Festival in January, and is an official selection of
the Next 5 Minutes Festival - Amsterdam, Korean Labor Film Festival -
Seoul, Films Fra Sor - Olso, IDFA Flies Tropics - Surinam, Cinema Texas
- Austin, Big Sky, OVNI - Barcelona, World Social Forum Film Festival -
Mumbai, India, ReelWorld - Toronto, Cleveland International, DOXA,
Syracuse International and Latinoamerica Arde - Buenos Aires.


"Passionate, euphoric, contagious. . . It is our worlds against their
system."
-IDFA, Amsterdam

"A powerful, radical cry from the frontlines of the war on people. This
film captures the spirit of resistance: it is as beautiful and global
as humanity itself."
-Naomi Klein, Author of NO LOGO

"THE FOURTH WORLD WAR is a daring, courageous, heart-pounding
intervention against empire. A remarkable, inspiring cinematic
achievement that completely reprograms the vectors of politically
engaged documentary."
- Patricia R. Zimmermann, author, States of Emergency: Documentaries,
Wars, Democracies
