DESCRIPTION:This beautiful, haunting and evocative film by Lynne Sachs is the powerful 
 story of what happened on May 17, 1968 when three priests, a nurse, an 
 artist and four others walked into a Catonsville, MD draft board office. 
 They grabbed hundreds of selective service records and burned them with 
 home-made napalm.\n This is an intimate look at this unlikely band-dubbed 
 the Catonsville Nine-who broke the law in a poetic act of civil 
 disobedience. The publicity and news coverage from their ensuing trial 
 helped galvanize an American public that was becoming increasingly 
 disillusioned with the Vietnam War. Lynn Sachs explores the Sixties protest 
 with our own difficult times and how we can act to get access to the public 
 imagination (e.g. the Occupy movement).   She has combined volatile 
 long-unseen archival footage with a series of informal interviews with 
 Berrigans, Howard Zinn and others. The meditative result encourages viewers 
 to ponder the contemporary relevance of civil disobedience and the 
 implications of personal sacrifice for the greater good. Endorsed by the 
 St. Joseph Father Bill O'Donnell Social Justice Committee and the 
 Ecumenical Peace Institute\n \n\nSponsored by the BFUU Social Justice Ctee
