THE STRIKE

THE STRIKE

Back for their tenth edition, Double Exposure Film Festival presents THE STRIKE, a gripping documentary that flips the true-crime genre on its head. THE STRIKE weaves together, thread-by-thread, a half century of personal and criminal justice history into a single, compelling narrative around the drama of the 2013 hunger strike to end indefinite isolation. Grounded in testimonies from the hunger strikers themselves, the film details how the protest was conceived from a whisper inside the halls of Pelican Bay to a colossal feat across California prisons. With unprecedented access to state prison officials and never-before-seen footage from inside Pelican Bay, THE STRIKE reveals the panic that gripped the highest echelons of state government. Join us to witness this historic story at DXIFF in Washington, D.C., November 7-10. Find out more about the 2024 lineup and buy your passes now: https://zurl.co/LCrB
