SHERMAN’S MARCH

“A wonderfully goofy, pertinent movie.” —The New York Times “A brilliant meditation on the Civil War’s shaping of the South … In reconnecting us with the past, McElwee asks us to reconnect not only with each other but with our human spirit.” —Slant “Multilayered, funny, and consistently engaging.” —Chicago Reader Determined to document the lingering effects of Sherman’s March on the South, Ross McElwee — in the wake of a breakup — quickly finds himself distracted, turning his eye from one battleground to another: love. A groundbreaking feat of diaristic filmmaking, it’s a wry meditation brimming with wit and wisdom on two of the modern age’s greatest conundrums: women and the American South. New 4K restoration.
