In Honor of Black History Month, The FBI (French Broad Institute of Time and The River) is proud to present DJ Spooky's REBIRTH OF A NATION. Part of a nationwide series of screenings of Rebirth for Black History Month, The FBI is presenting the only local screening of Spooky's Silent Film/Hip-Hop Mashup
REBIRTH OF A NATION is a radical remix of D.W. Griffith's infamous ground breaking silent epic Birth Of A Nation, transforming the original's racist melodramatics into a kaleidoscopic meditation on identity and perception. Both image and sound are remixed by DJ Spooky to create an experience of pure sensory overload.
This Screening marks the premiere of The Devotional Cinema Film Series at The FBI. REBIRTH OF A NATION lasts approximately 100 minutes. It will be preceded by a screening of the short film THE GRAND INQUISITOR (23 min), which features an original score by DJ Spooky.
