Born in Flames

Borden’s landmark, low-budget revolutionary treatise addresses a semi-documentary, semi-fictional parallel world to ours, where competing feminist groups wander the streets and control the radio waves, and where the “Social Democratic” administration in power is powerless to stop the tide of progress stemming from racial and gender injustice. Focused on the different paths resistance to power can take, Borden’s vision unspools through inventive set-pieces intercut with monologues from two radical radio DJs who rousingly hold forth on a variety of issues facing the world community.
