Be Seeing You with Class of Struggle
Thu, May 12 | 7:30pm | TMT
Just before the cataclysmic May 1968 events, Marker with Mario Marret, as part of the SLON collective, went to Besançon where textile workers were poised to strike. They captured the fractured process but also the ultimate sense of soli- darity. When workers who collaborated with the collective on Be Seeing You were unhappy with the results, the filmmakers returned to make Class of Struggle . Under the name The Medvedkin Group, their aim was to teach workers to make their own movies. Together, these films are some of the most important politically engaged cinema.
