An intriguing July 4th movie

 

In the future, after a Second American Civil War, most reading in the United States is confined to the Internet, called "The 9", many books are banned. The fire department serves a different function: firemen start most fires.  They are ordered to burn books, in addition to buildings. Guy Montag is a fireman living in Cleveland working under Captain Beatty, and goes about his work without question, believing that by following in his captain's footsteps he is serving and protecting society.  And that is how this adventure begins, not unlike what is happening today with ICE.  When he finally decides to rebel and understand how the "Eels" (book-reading outcasts) read, he comes to a realization—he now wants to read as well, asking to be relieved of his duties.  An intriguing July 4th movie, that will light you up. Join us for the fun.
