Synopsis:

Summer 1967. The United States is experiencing an unprecedented wave of riots. The Vietnam War, seen as a neo-colonial intervention, and racial segregation are fueling the protests.
In Detroit, where the climate has been insurrectionary for two days, gunshots are heard in the middle of the night near a National Guard base. Law enforcement surrounded the Algiers Motel, where the shots appeared to have come from. Flouting all procedures, the police subjected a handful of hotel guests to sadistic interrogation in order to extract confessions. The toll was heavy: three unarmed men were shot at point-blank range and several others were wounded...

univerciné, the USMB cinema 

The Univerciné association was founded in 1996 with the aim of promoting arthouse cinema and research. Since then, the Univerciné team has strived to fulfill this mission by offering the Chambéry public films, exclusively in their original version with subtitles, in a variety of genres (drama, comedy, cinema classics, fantasy, documentaries, etc.). In addition to its regular programming, Univerciné offers themed evenings and screenings followed by discussions with filmmakers and/or speakers.The University of Savoie Mont Blanc is the only university in France to have a cinema with commercial status, allowing it to show all films released nationally.
