Film: Born In Flames

Jan 18, 2012
-
Posted by Thirza Tooes

Life can sometimes really suck, but this just goes to show it can always get worse. This feminist science fiction film paints an alarming picture of a Western world rife with sexism and racism. The narrative follows two plucky female DJs who refuse to accept the injustice in the community around them. Mix in an all woman, guerrilla army and some suspicious political assassinations and you have an engaging piece of original cinema knee deep in uncomfortable modern issues.
