DESCRIPTION:TREE-SIT: The Art of Resistance\nA film by James Ficklin & HAVC\n\nCome see 
 the amazing new feature documentary about the grass-roots\nenvironmental 
 movement.  This film covers over 10 years of civil\ndisobedience and direct 
 actions to save the last remnant of ancient\ntemperate rainforest in 
 California! Here is the inside story that sets the\ncontext for this modern 
 day myth.  From the struggle to save Headwaters\nForest, to the 
 assassination attempt of Judi Bari, to the pepper spray\ntorture of young 
 activists, to the establishment of permanent\n"tree-villages", and the 
 marathon tree-sits of Julia Butterfly Hill, Nate\nMadeson and others.\n\nA 
 cinematic whirlwind of action mixed with poignant commentary, 
 biting\npolitical analysis, beautiful nature footage, all mixed to a 
 hypnotic\ncutting edge soundtrack of Drum & Bass electronica and tribal, 
 pagan folk\nmusic.  This film is historically relevant, exhilarating, 
 informative, and\nintense!\n\nTREE-SIT is much more than just hippie 
 tree-sitters, it includes big\npicture issues such as Native American 
 struggles, political prisoners, our\nspiritual connection with nature, deep 
 ecology, police brutality,\ngovernment corruption, big labor joining forces 
 with environmentalists to\noppose corporate rule and the birth of the 
 "anti-globalization movement" at\nthe WTO protests in Seattle.   Features 
 Joan Baez, Bonnie Raitt, Woody\nHarrelson and Mickey Hart of the Grateful 
 Dead.\n\nQ&A with filmmaker James Ficklin to follow screening.\nEvening 
 will end with live music performed by members of Land of the Blind,\n(who 
 are featured in the soundtrack)\n\nHoward Zinn describes TREE-SIT as: 
 "Truly inspiring".\n*Winner of Earthvisions Film Festival award, "Best 
 Forest Documentary".\n\nCell Space 415-648-7562\n
