    Contact: Voleine Amilcar, ITVS [email protected] or 415-356-8383, ext., 244 PBS Series Independent Lens Announces Agreement to Acquire Brett Morgen’s CHICAGO 10 From Participant Media and River Road Entertainment to Headline New Season Film Explores the Buildup to and Unraveling of the Chicago Conspiracy Trial After the 1968 Democratic Convention (San Francisco, CA)— The Emmy and Peabody Award–winning PBS series Independent Lens, announced today that it has reached an agreement with Participant Media and River Road Entertainment to acquire the U.S. television broadcast rights for CHICAGO 10 for the upcoming season. The film was theatrically released earlier this year by Roadside Attractions. “CHICAGO 10 is a perfect match for Independent Lens,” said series producer Lois Vossen. “Brett Morgen’s innovative film is part documentary, part historical drama, part animation and completely compelling—this film is aimed directly at the younger, more diverse audience that we continue to bring to PBS.” Written and directed by Brett Morgen (The Kid Stays in the Picture), CHICAGO 10 presents contemporary history with a forced perspective, mixing bold and original animation with extraordinary archival footage and an explosive soundtrack that explores the buildup to and unraveling of the Chicago Conspiracy Trial. With animated representations of all the key figures of the trial voiced by top independent film talent (Hank Azaria, Mark Ruffalo, Dylan Baker, Jeffrey Wright, Liev Schreiber, Nick Nolte and the late Roy Scheider), CHICAGO 10 brings the events of 1968 to a new generation of audiences. “Some may believe that the events of 1968 are ancient history, but in this election year, with a hotly contested race and millions of young voters participating for the first time, this story has never been more relevant,” added Vossen.
