A Time for Burning

A Time for Burning is a documentary film produced in 1966 by Lutheran Film Associates. You can still purchase the film at Amazon.com and it streams in a variety of services. The film has received several awards, most notably being chosen in 2005 to become part of the National Film Registry at the Library of Congress.

It has been used — particularly in Lutheran contexts — as a case study in the challenges posed by social upheaval and cultural change.
