Today, we’re sharing a conversation about What You Gonna Do When the World’s on Fire?, which opens exclusively at Film at Lincoln Center this Friday.

The film was an official selection at the 56th New York Film Festival, where the director, producer Paolo Benzi, producer Denise Ping Lee, and the film’s subjects, Judy Hill, Krystal Muhammad, and Nat Turner, joined FLC Director of Programming Dennis Lim for a Q&A.  Join the the director, Judy Hill, and Krystal Muhammad this weekend for Q&As, plus an opening night reception on Friday.
