In 1968 there was a National Democratic Convention in Chicago where activists were denied the right to protest, which eventually sparked riots in the streets. This of course resulted in a police state followed by a massive media circus. Director Brett Morgan (The Kid Stays In The Picture) has chosen to tackle the recreation of this story in a format reminiscent of Richard Linklater’s Waking Life.
