This is a film depicting life under a dystopic authoritarian regime that rules someplace in North America. Everyone is armed, there are gangs, security gates everywhere -- an exagerrated version of elements of today's reality. In between the mindless violence, there are Shakesperean philosophical references uttered by unlikely people. Bob Dylan and his music fit the role beautifully.

We ordered this film after seeing the wonderful series Francesco did on Venice. But the Mediterranean Voyage was very disappointing almost contentless.

Amazing film that covered all the class tensions and personal aspirations in these mining communities. For anyone who followed the miners strike of the early 1980s the issues with the trade unions is also portrayed prophetically in this film from the 1930s.
