Archival footage, animation and music are used to look back at the eight anti-war protesters who were put on trial following the 1968 Democratic National Convention.

Remember Chicago, 1968? Tens of thousands of anti-war protesters stormed the
Democratic convention, setting off a chain of explosive and violent confrontations with the police. Well, now history has a new look. Bold and original animation recreate the wild antics of the infamous Chicago Conspiracy Trial, along with a powerful soundtrack and archival footage that takes you back to the streets of Chicago during that unforgettable summer.

Hostelling International and Boston Cares, in collaboration with WGBH, bring this unique film series to Boston. Each month, Community Cinema screenings offer special sneak previews of films scheduled for upcoming broadcast on the Emmy Award-winning PBS series Independent Lens.

Community Cinema screenings also feature panel discussions with leading community-based organizations and special guest speakers, as well as information and resources designed to help people learn about and get involved in today's key social issues.
