Another Brick In The Wall - A season of films on youth & revolt curated by Second Home & MUBI
PUNISHMENT PARK
Dir. Peter Watkins, 1971
After it's controversy-stoking premiere at the New York Film Festival, Hollywood refused to distribute the film and it was barely seen until it's DVD release in 2005. Set in a detention camp in an America of the near-future, Punishment Park‘s pseudo-documentary style places a British film crew amongst a group of young dissidents who, faced with lengthy jail time, have opted to spend three days in ’Bear Mountain Punishment Park’.
*************************
With the buzz of the General Election 2015, MUBI is collaborating with Second Home to curate a season which focuses on youth and revolt, raising awareness of politics and the importance of having a voice.
The season kicks off with award winning director Alexander Payne's Election, and finishes with a screening and Q&A session with director Eric Baudelaire.
Also included in the line-up are the coming-of-age, BAFTA winningThis Is England, Jean-Luc Godard's dark political comedy and Venice Special Award winner La Chinoise, and the Oscar-winning Peter Watkins' controversial pesudo-documentary Punishment Park.
