Northern Lights

COMING SOON OPENS in 4 days, Dec. 8

Northern Lights

After it won the 1979 Cannes Camera d’Or, critics worldwide hailed Northern Lights as an indie cinema classic. It dramatizes (in luminous B&W) the battle North Dakota wheat farmers waged against the bankers & big-city merchants who were pushing them into bankruptcy. Their grassroots movement caught fire, and their party won the elections of 1916, but at great personal cost. In the words of lead organizer, Ray Sorenson, “You struggle for a good life, but you never get to live it.”
