Description
United in Anger: A History of ACT UP combines archival footage and remarkably insightful interviews from the ACT UP (AIDS Coalition to Unleash Power) Oral History Project to explore how a small group of men and women of all races and classes came together to change the world and save each other’s lives. The film takes the viewer through the planning and execution of a dozen major actions that forced the U.S. government and mainstream media to deal with the AIDS crisis.
Jim Hubbard has been making films since 1974, including Elegy in the Streets (1989), Two Marches (1991), The Dance (1992) and Memento Mori (1995). His films have been shown at the Museum of Modern Art, the Berlin Film Festival, the London Film Festival, and the San Francisco Jewish Film Festival, among many others. Hubbard co-founded MIX, the New York Lesbian and Gay Experimental Film/Video Festival, and created the AIDS Activist Video Collection at the New York Public Library under the auspices of the Estate Project for Artists with AIDS. He has curated or co-curated film series for the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum and Museum of Modern Art in New York City.
The filmmaker and an assembled panel of experts will be present at the screening and work with the Ferguson Center to engage both CNU students and local community members to build greater appreciation for their works and the art of film.
