Experimental hip-hop musician and multimedia artist DJ Spooky (Paul D. Miller) created this "cinematic remix" that analyzes and deconstructs D.W. Griffith's 1915 classic-but-racist epic film, The Birth of a Nation. Direction, music and commentary by DJ Spooky, with performance by SF's Kronos String Quartet.

"Applying 'turntablist' techniques to cinema, Miller’s ambitious Rebirth of a Nation extends beyond the original’s racial implications to highlight how Griffith’s film defined the parameters of propaganda in moving images."  — ArtForum

NR, 100 min., 2007. Intertitles for the Griffith source material throughout, but closed captions (CC) unavailable for Miller's spoken commentary.
