Social Seminar: Changing

Social Seminar: Changing, an archival ephemeral film in the Prelinger Archives collection.

"Demonstrates the quality of life as its impact is felt by a young family trying to reorient themselves in a society of conflicting standards and values. Shows how the terms hippie, square, hardhat and straight become blurred when one just tries to find the lifestyle that suits him best. Puts the drug question in perspective as it relates to adults and the total society." (contemporary synopsis of this cinema-verite-style film) A film by Hubert Smith. Photography: Neil Reichline.
