If you're in the mood for experimental, politically-charged theater cinema that doubles as historical meditation, this obscure Bread and Puppet piece is a genuinely compelling rabbit hole—just don't expect conventional narrative or entertainment. Skip it if you need plot or polish, but YES if you crave challenging, unconventional art that grapples with real tragedy.
Plot
For hope in the face of resistance. For the 20,000 communards executed at the Paris Commune on May 28, 1871. Filmed at Bread and Puppet theater in Glover, Vermont on a spring afternoon 150 years later.
Director: Jefferson Everest Crawford
