Hot Docs Film Screenings - LET THE FIRE BURN @ Various Locations, Toronto, ON - Mon Apr 29th, Tues Apr 30th & Fri May 3rd!

In 1985, a conflict between Philadelphia police and radical black liberation group MOVE reached a violent climax when the police dropped explosives onto the communal row house occupied by the group. The ensuing fire destroyed 61 homes and claimed the lives of six adults (including MOVE founder John Africa) and five children. The authorities stood by and watched the fire burn for over an hour before they extinguished the blaze. Jason Osder expertly constructs an historical context for the conflict between MOVE and the Philly police that dates back through the ‘70s. Comprised entirely of archival material, including interviews with the only two survivors of the fire and the public commission inquiry that followed the tragedy, Let the Fire Burn has a sense of immediacy and current cultural relevance as it investigates how fear, intolerance and prejudice can quickly spiral out of control.
