13th Annual Bridges to the World International Film Festival --- Third Film
Embassy of Mexico
"Redes" poster
The Mexican film, “Redes", was produced in 1935 and restored in 2010 by Martin Scorsese with a new a new recording of the original score.
"Redes" tells the economic struggle of poor fishermen manipulated by the sole owner of their region’s fish market. It celebrates day-to-day physical labor and depicts the working class as intrepid and valiant. Unabashedly pro-union, it champions consciousness-raising and organized resistance as means to achieve social justice and political reform. The film clearly expresses the left-leaning politics in international artistic circles of the time when artists championed the rights of workers everywhere.
