The global occupy movement exploded onto the international stage last year. In the first part of the evening we will screen a number of beautiful and inspiring shorts have been produced about the movement both locally and internationally.
The main feature will be: Paths through Utopias – 109mins. As the global financial crisis surfaced in 2007 activists and academics John Jordan & Isabelle Fremeaux journeyed for 7 months across Europe to investigate and experience examples of post-capitalist living – from a direct action Climate Camp set up illegally on the edges of Heathrow airport, to a hamlet squatted by French punks, to occupied self-managed Serbian factories. They shared different ways of loving and eating, producing and sharing things, deciding together and rebelling.
The film is a magicorealist road movie set in an imagined post-crash
future. http://lessentiersdelutopie.wordpress.com/
