This and the following films were made by revolutionary filmmakers in the 1960s and they are presented here by Single Spark Films because they are a window to that period. These films were an attempt by artists to contribute to the revolutionary upsurges of the '60s and are part of the many films influenced by the rebellions of those times. But, certainly, they do not exhaust the possibilities of revolutionary cinema. Leaders of the Black Panther Party talk on the then-revolutionary views of the Panthers: about Vietnam and unity of different nationalities, about armed struggle and their unswerving opposition to the system's oppression. Captures a sense of what they were about then, their strengths as well as shortcomings.
