Solidarity
A document of the literal boots on the ground at a strike at the Kitchener, Ontario-based Dare cookie factory. By framing just the feet of the workers and superimposing the film’s title atop the image throughout, Canadian experimental filmmaker Joyce Wieland (1930–1998) emphasizes the impact of organized direct action and places visual import on the physical demands required for reform.

One Way or Another (De cierta manera)
The only Afro-Latina woman ever in the Instituto Cubano del Arte e Industria Cinematográficos, Sara Gómez's neo-realistic work of fiction and her only feature film is a portrait of romantic love in times of revolution. Boldly confronting class, race, and gender inequality, One Way or Another also questions the economy, educational opportunities, healthcare, and women’s place in society. Unfinished at the time of her death in 1974, her co-writer, the renowned filmmaker Tomás Gutiérrez Alea, whose later Fresa y Chocolate (1993) became the first Cuban film nominated for a Foreign Language Film Oscar, dedicated himself to completing the movie after she was gone.
