Intolerance (Restored Kino Edition)

Intolerance is a 1916 silent film that tells four different stories about the persistence of intolerance throughout history and the damage it does to innocent people. The first story takes place in ancient Babylon in the 5th century BC. A conflict arises between Cyrus the Great of Persia and Prince Belshazzar of Babylon over religious intolerance, leading to the destruction of their mutual civilizations. The second story begins just before the death of Christ. Angry that Jesus defended adulterous women from being stoned to death and envious of his ability to turn water into wine, his adversaries set forward the events that lead to his crucifixion. The third story takes place in the 16th century, where intolerance led to the massacre of a group of Huguenots at the hands of Roman Catholics. The final story takes place in the United States early in the 20th century, where the poorest American are forced to suffer because of the greed of wealthy capitalists. MORE [EDIT]
