¿Qué significa ser un REVOLUCIONARIO AMERICANO hoy? Grace Lee Boggs, una mujer chino-estadounidense de Detroit, que murió en octubre de 2015 a los 100 años, tiene una visión sorprendente de la revolución. Escritora, activista y filósofa arraigada durante más de 70 años en el movimiento afroamericano, dedicó su vida a una revolución en evolución que abarcaba las contradicciones del pasado de Estados Unidos y su futuro potencialmente radical. Este documental ganador del Premio Peabody nos sumerge en la práctica de toda la vida de Boggs de encender el diálogo y la acción comunitarios, trabajo que atraviesa los principales movimientos sociales estadounidenses del siglo pasado: desde los derechos laborales hasta los derechos civiles, pasando por el Black Power, el feminismo, el asiático-americano y el medio ambiente. movimientos de justicia y más allá.
Angela Davis, Bill Moyers, Bill Ayers, Ruby Dee y Ossie Davis, Danny Glover, el marido de Boggs, James Boggs, y una gran cantidad de camaradas de Detroit de tres generaciones ayudan a dar forma a esta historia exclusivamente estadounidense. Mientras lucha con un Detroit en transición, las contradicciones de la violencia y la no violencia, Malcolm X y Martin Luther King Jr., las rebeliones de 1967 y nociones no lineales del tiempo y la historia, Boggs emerge con un enfoque que es radical en su simplicidad y claridad: la revolución no es un acto de agresión o simplemente una protesta. La revolución, dice Boggs, tiene que ver con algo más profundo dentro de la experiencia humana: la capacidad de transformarse uno mismo para transformar el mundo. Con más de diez años de realización, esta película interdisciplinaria tiene un gran atractivo.
National Alliance on Mental Illness
"An Unquiet Mind" handles OCD with a rare and beautiful balance of empathy, compassion, and clinical insight. I left the theater feeling better equipped to walk alongside those who struggle — and with a deeper compassion for those who may be suffering in silence. This film is a gift."
"An Unquiet Mind" gets it right. Empathetic, clinically grounded, and deeply human — this film will change how you see OCD and the people living with it.
“Rarely does a film about mental health leave you both moved and better informed. "An Unquiet Mind" strikes a perfect balance of empathy and clinical insight — equipping audiences to support those who struggle with OCD and to recognize those who may be suffering in silence. Essential viewing.”
Houston OCD Support Community
"An Unquiet Mind gave me insight into others’ minds and mine; there wasn’t a theme or thought portrayed in the film that I haven’t had, making me feel seen, and yet audience members’ audible reactions made me realize not everyone struggles with intrusive thoughts, as social media suggests— that this is truly a disorder."
International OCD Foundation
"I can say unequivocally that this documentary is the one that we as a community have been desperately waiting for. I am at an absolute loss for words after watching this. The sound design brings out into the tension and discomfort of the first person accounts of OCD and brings you in to that vacuum of rumination. It is tender, non judgmental and a perfect depiction of OCD. It captures the pain, the suffering and the absolute resilience of this battle. This should be mandatory viewing for anyone unfamiliar with OCD. It is also a powerful and moving testimony for sufferers and clinicians alike"
"This documentary was a like a breath of fresh air; finally, someone has been brave and diligent enough to create a realistic, honest and raw portrayal of just how debilitating and serious OCD can be. There was so much that I could personally relate to and it was reassuring and comforting to know that I'm not alone. The documentary does a tremendous job at breaking down the stigma and sensationalism that's often incorrectly attached to OCD"
