Carts of Darkness: Interview with Murray Siple about his subjects

Description pédagogique:

Encourage discussion around homelessness and alcoholism: How are these topics glorified in the film? In what ways could these men be considered outlaws? Is cart racing a bona fide extreme sport? In what ways is the men’s racing dangerous to themselves and others? Does the fact that they are helping the environment justify this practice? Challenge the definition of wealth, as it is depicted in the film. Consider the concept of lifestyle choices evident in the film. This film deals with mature subject matter .
