WHOSE STREETS?
Friday, April 14, 7:45PMPresented by SFIFF + HERE FOR NOW
Sabaah Faloyan, director, and Damon Davis co-director, 2017“Searing film gives voice to the people of Fergusonâ€â€”The Guardian
Official selection of the San  Francisco International Film Festival
When police in Ferguson, Missouri, kill unarmed teenager Michael Brown and leave him lying in the street for hours, it marks a breaking point for the residents of St. Louis County. Grief, long-standing racial tensions and renewed anger bring together residents and supporters from around the country to hold vigil and protest, even as the national guard descends. Told by the activists and leaders who live and breathe this movement for justice, Whose Streets? is an unflinching look at the Ferguson uprising and a powerful battle cry from a generation fighting, not for their civil rights, but for the right to live.
Presented by HERE FOR NOW, the PROXY Spring Series features new independent film and one-of-a-kind collaborations with pioneering arts institutions. The six, free, Friday evening film screenings begin at 7:45 pm with “doors†opening at 7:00 pm. Come early to claim a good spot, and be sure to review our tips for enjoying movies outside at PROXY.
