Screenings
Featuring an exceptional ensemble, including Mark Ruffalo and Dylan O’Brien, Heder’s precisely rendered drama recreates the battle between government officials and the activists, culminating in their 28-day takeover of San Francisco’s Federal Building in 1977. What emerges is a vision of a tenacious, witty collective of history-makers whose groundbreaking act of resistance was instrumental in bringing much-needed social change.
