The Weather Underground (2002) delves into the tumultuous era of the late 1960s and early 1970s, focusing on a pivotal event in October 1969 when a group of young activists, dressed in football helmets and armed with lead pipes, stormed through a wealthy Chicago shopping area. This dramatic protest, known as the "Days of Rage," marked the beginning of the Weather Underground's aggressive campaign against the U.S. government. Driven by anger over the Vietnam War and racial injustice, the group embarked on a series of high-profile actions, including bombing the Capitol building and orchestrating the escape of Timothy Leary from prison. The documentary chronicles the ascent and eventual decline of this radical faction, featuring candid interviews with former members who discuss the fervent ideals that motivated them to "bring the war home" and the consequences that led to their inclusion on the FBI's most wanted list.
