RadicaIly combining colIaborative documentary, western, and musical elements, the new fiIm by Robert Greene (KATE PLAYS CHRlSTINE) follows severaI members of a close-knit community as they attempt to reckon with their town s darkest hour. ln 1917, nearly two-thousand immigrant miners, on strike for better wages and safer working conditions, were violentIy rounded up by their armed neighbors, herded onto cattle cars, shipped to the middIe of the New Mexican desert, and left there to die. This Iong-buried and largely forgotten event came to be known as the Bisbee Deportation. BISBEE 17 documents Iocals as they play characters and stage dramatic scenes from the controversiaI story, culminating in a large scale recreation of the deportation itself on the exact day of its 100th anniversary. These dramatized scenes are based on subjective versions of the story and offer confIicting views of the event, underscoring the difficuIty of collective memory, while confronting the current poIitical predicaments of immigration, unionization, environmental damage, and corporate corruption with direct, haunting messages about solidarity and struggIe.
