DESCRIPTION:EL ENEMIGO  COMUN    produced by  Austin Indymedia    Bay Area Premieres  
 with filmmaker  Simon Sedillo  $3 - no one turned away  San Francisco   
 Thursday February 9th  @ Station 40 (3030b 16th St. & Mission)  8pm  
 Oakland   Monday February 13th  @ AK Press (674 23rd St. & San Pablo)   8pm 
    "el enemigo común" scratches beneath the surface of neoliberalism, at 
 some of the its most hidden atrocities in recent North American history. 
 The film documents instances of paramilitary activity against indigenous 
 communities in Oaxaca, Mexico from 2002 through 2005 while including scenes 
 from an international human rights movement in 2003, in Miami against the 
 Free Trade Area of the America's, and in Cancun against the World Trade 
 Organization. The three locations in isolation expose the disparity of 
 North American resistances, but together bring us closer to understanding 
 the nature of an emerging common struggle.  Tear gas, rubber bullets, and 
 direct actions set behind the compelling faces and voices of survivors of 
 incomprehensible atrocities expose the extremes of these relevant acts of 
 modern political repression. The film challenges what we already know about 
 paramilitary activity in Mexico, US involvement in said activity, and the 
 current face of resistance against human indignity and injustice in North 
 America Today.  Bouncing back and forth from community to community, "el 
 enemigo común" is both an introduction to some of the many ignored 
 resistances in North America, and it is also an urgent call to action for 
 international civil society, to stand in solidarity against state sponsored 
 repression and for human peace, dignity and justice, in Oaxaca, Mexico. The 
 film provides a historical context for the current violent incarnation of 
 capitalism and empire, and provokes action against it as a common enemy.
