What You Gonna Do When the World's on Fire?
First screened in September 2018
Director: Roberto Minervini. Cast: Judy Hill, Kevin Goodman, Dorothy Hill, Ashlei King, Ronaldo King, Michael Nelson, Titus Turner. Screenplay: Roberto Minervini.

Twitter Capsule: Painful, beautiful study of leadership in many forms: formal, fraternal, peer-to-peer.

Second Capsule: Minervini's firm attention to and collaborative solidarity with his subjects is once again a marvel, capturing strengths and contradictions.

VOR:   Not as rare an aperture into a barely-imaginable world as The Other Side was, but still a brave, rare portrait reflecting an unusual artistic practice.
