OverView

On Cuauhtémoc Avenue, near the intersection with Reforma Street, a trio of musicians arrives—members of a fara-fara group. They wear their hats, shirts, belts, pants, and boots. They play the accordion, the bajo sexto, and the tololoche. However, they play for a city dominated by traffic, cars, honking horns, and people rushing from one place to another—a constant movement brought on by urban life, in a space filled with buildings and concrete.

The Sixth Side of the Pentagon

August 1968 •French

On October 21, 1967, over 100,000 protestors gathered in Washington, D.C., for the Mobilization to End the War in Vietnam. It was the largest protest gathering yet, and it brought together a wide cross-section of liberals, radicals, hippies, and Yippies. Che Guevara had been killed in Bolivia only two weeks previously, and, for many, it was the transition from simply marching against the war, to taking direct action to try to stop the 'American war machine.' Norman Mailer wrote about the events in Armies of the Night. French filmmaker Chris Marker, leading a team of filmmakers, was also there.
