Sunday Scaries presents: Born in Flames

  • 325 E Main Street Norman, OK, 73069 United States (map)

Join us for another chapter in Sunday Scaries history.

This month, your host Maura McAndrew will be screening the 1983 radical underground mock-doc Born in Flames (Lizzie Borden), a feminist look at a dystopian future where socialism has won out, but rampant inequality still persists.

Per IMDb: “Set ten years after the most peaceful revolution in United States history, a revolution in which a socialist government gains power, this films presents a dystopia in which the issues of many progressive groups - minorities, liberals, gay rights organizations, feminists - are ostensibly dealt with by the government, and yet there are still problems with jobs, with gender issues, with governmental preference and violence. In New York City, in this future time, a group of women decide to organize and mobilize, to take the revolution farther than any man - and many women - ever imagined in their lifetimes.”
