What You Gonna Do When the World’s on Fire? Storyline
A stunning series of vignettes documenting intimate, day-to-day discourse between mothers, children, business owners, local personalities, and New Black Panther Party members across multiple communities in the American South during the summer of 2017 – a contemporary portrait of the state of race relations in the South emerges as black leaders advocate for resource equality and dignity, support community members in need, and demand an end to the systemic racism facilitating the continued murder of non-white Americans.

What You Gonna Do When the World’s on Fire? Movie Reviews
Two words…
Buffalo Soldier. Period. End of story. Now scram ya hypocrite.
A doc lover who really struggled with this one.
As an Aussie who lived in New Orleans for about five months in 2015, I was very excited to see this at the Melbourne International Film Festival.
However, I did struggle to engage with any of the participants the film follows and felt that there was nothing really driving the film and it felt quite aimless.
The black and white photography is crisp and sharp and it creates a sombre, stiffling effect.
We follow members of the black community in different parts of NOLA from black panthers at meetings and working on the streets with the homeless to a woman under pressure to keep her bar running to two young brothers roaming their neighbourhood.
There just wasn’t enough going on story wise to keep me engaged in the characters lives.
Very emotional
What you gonna do when the worlds on fire was a very emotional piece of art that really though I had never experienced this first hand was a very deep piece of work.
The film not revealed to us before was shot with no music, no colour and no questions as i believe what the director was trying to do was emotionally detach us from the thought that this is a documentary. Therefore making it very lifelike.
My one problem with the documentary there was no beginning middle or end. Which I would have been fine with if they didn’t introduce characters so late into the story. Another 10 mins of run time would have made all the difference.
I would recommend this event to anyone who likes the thrill of a suprise and gets to see an amazing selection of films, especially like this.
