Sundance Review: Shouting Fire: Stories From The Edge Of Free Speech

Fire cry: The story at the end of freedom of speech explored freedom of speech in the United States through contemporary cases where the first amendment played a very important role. This documentary not only focuses on how Chinese freedom of speech is being challenged, but Americans abandon civic liberty in exchange for national security in the post-9/11 era I am worried that I do not want or want it.

Film director Liz Garbus talks about the story of a movie with her father, lawyer of First Amendment, Martin Garbus. By introducing stories with his own personal experience and other historical references, Garbus is aware of the first anniversary of McCarthy's era and other important periods in our country's history We led. The film also cites various incidents in recent years, including Word Churchill's rejection from posting at the University of Colorado. There, he wrote in a blog post that the person who died at the World Trade Center is a "technical expert team". The core of the global financial empire is "call them" Little Ekman ".

Another case is the story of Debbie Almontaser. She is a Muslim-American woman forced to resign as head of the first bilingual Arabic / English school in New York City, as the discourse on the word "uprising" was rejected from the background by news reports. There are also children from San Diego, Chase Harper, who was interrupted from school after wearing a T - shirt, including Biblical quotes and "Gay is a shameful". This film also includes protestors Ruth Ben and Ed Hedeman arrested with more than 1,000 protesters gathered in New York City at the 2004 Republican National Convention.

Between the story of Garbus and the above mentioned, we present a series of pretty good examples to show the problems surrounding our initial amendment right. It is interesting that 9/11 influenced the recognition of the first modification by Americans. In addition to showing news stories about each specific case discussed in the movie, Ward Churchill, Debbie Almontaser, Chase Harper, Ruth Benn, Ed Hedemann etc to understand their personal views on the case and individuals I was interviewed. An instance to make sure to hear aspects of their story. Garbus also emphasizes that being discussed using popular movie clips such as Mr. Smith from Mr. Washington, all the presidents' subordinates, and even Grand Lebowski as a whole.

Sometimes I thought during the Shouting Fire that Garbus got into details of the case to be resolved, but at the same time she wanted to develop a solution to problems related to freedom of expression I paid a lot of effort. But the background of the problem However, taking note of Ward Churchill's view of the 9/11 affair, the focus of the documentary is not what he said, whether he should first make him say it It is easy to forget.
