DESCRIPTION:After sold-out shows around the Bay Area, "We Interrupt This Empire..." 
 returns to the Parkway Theater!  A collaborative film documenting the 
 direct actions that shut down San Francisco following the US Government's 
 invasion of Iraq in March, "We Interrupt This Empire..." is a dynamic and 
 inspiring look at the modern anti-war movement. With still no weapons of 
 mass destruction found, daily Iraqi civilian and US military casualities 
 from an occupation spiralling out of control, and billions being diverted 
 from US social programs to fund the "liberation" and "reconstruction", 
 "EMPIRE..." is perhaps even more relevant now as the US Government and 
 Corporate Media backpedal. Exposing the collusion of corporate media, war 
 profiteers and the US goverment's imperialist drive, plus a look at the 
 attack on our civil liberties, "EMPIRE..." also celebrates the Bay Area's 
 diversity of resistance to an illegal war.\n\nWhat happens when a 
 trigger-happy cowboy with a pocket full of loot aims his guns on an 
 oil-rich, people-poor nation? \n\nWe Interrupt This Empire... is a powerful 
 look into the direct actions that shut down the financial district of San 
 Francisco on the day after the United States invaded Iraq. With audio 
 backdrop including the live radio broadcasts from the Independent Media 
 Center to SFPD's tactical communications that were picked up on police 
 scanners, the documentary reveals a diverse show of resistance from the 
 streets of San Francisco as well as providing a critique of the corporate 
 media coverage of the war and exploring such issues as the Military 
 Industrial Complex, attack on civil liberties, and the United States' 
 current imperialist drive.\n\nTrailer:\n56k:
