Listen, America! documents the personalities and texture of the 60’s from this unique perspective of foreknowledge. A tapestry of mass riots and individual confessions, naked body-painted orgies and militant Underground organizing makes Listen, America! a singular evocation of its time. Exuberant in the shadow of what is to come, the film shares a poignant complicity with its contemporary audience.
Listen America! was made under the open-minded auspices of the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, who granted the filmmakers total autonomy. Prime-time screenings on Canadian television caused serious controversy. The next day, issues covered in the movie — and free expression itself — were argued on the pages of Variety, and in the U.S. Congress. The CBC chose the very best way to make its position clear: The film was given an immediate encore broadcast. Listen America! is an existentialist critique of 1960’s radicalism — from within the Movement itself.
