Born in Flames (1983)

In an alternate socialist-democracy United States, two feminist organizations use guerilla tactics to bring to light women’s issues still rampant in the new America. I must admit that a great deal of the politics of the film went over my head. This wasn’t helped by the very low-budget, documentary-like style of the film, but there’s still the prevailing feeling that the more things change the more they stay the same. While there’s definitely a similar feel to Lizzie Borden’s later film Working Girls , I have to say that the other film speaks more to me both in its narrative and style.
