Join Utah Film Center, KUER 90.1, and Radiowest for a special evening as we partner with UtahPresents on this special event.

Conceived as a reimagining of director D.W. Griffith’s infamously racist 1915 silent film The Birth of a NationDJ Spooky’s Rebirth of a Nation is a controversial and culturally significant project that examines how “…exploitation and political corruption still haunt the world to this day, but in radically different forms.” Originally commissioned in 2004 by the Lincoln Center Festival, the work has played throughout the world and continues to engage audiences in themes of civil rights and freedom, seen through the lens of DJ Spooky’s unique art of remixing.
