"Resistance of Vision" launches nationally at independent theaters in Alabama, Kansas, California and at The Brattle in Cambridge. The festival organizers say the goal is to foster community organizing around social justice issues.
The Resistance of Vision Traveling Film Festival, as reported by WBUR on May 1, 2025, is a unique cinematic event that showcases films focusing on social justice, human rights, and political resistance. The festival, which travels to various cities across the United States, aims to bring attention to underrepresented stories and voices through a diverse selection of documentaries, narratives, and experimental films. This year's lineup includes powerful entries such as "Voices from the Margins," which explores the lives of marginalized communities, and "The Fight for Freedom," a documentary about grassroots movements around the world. The festival not only provides a platform for filmmakers to share their work but also encourages audience engagement through post-screening discussions and workshops, fostering a deeper understanding and dialogue on critical global issues.
