    “This explosive work offers a speculative, feminist polemic set in a potential future that mirrors both the present in which it was made and ours. . . . [Lizzie] Borden’s fevered 1983 film is absolutely one we should be watching right now” (Yasmina Price, Vulture).

    “Combative, entropic, mesmerizing, Lizzie Borden’s first film, the shape-shifting documentary Regrouping, is a chronicle of a women’s collective” (Melissa Anderson, 4Columns).
