This is the full-length documentary.

From Wikipedia:

There is No Authority But Yourself is a Dutch film directed by Alexander Oey documenting the history of anarchist punk band Crass. The film features archive footage of the band and interviews with former members Steve Ignorant, Penny Rimbaud and Gee Vaucher. As well as reflecting on the band's past the film focusses on their current activities, and includes footage of Rimbaud performing with Last Amendment at the Vortex jazz club in Hackney, a compost toilet building workshop and a permaculture course held at Dial House in the spring of 2006.

The title of the film is derived from the final lines of the Crass album Yes Sir, I Will; "You must learn to live with your own conscience, your own morality, your own decision, your own self. You alone can do it. There is no authority but yourself."

There is No Authority But Yourself premiered at the Raindance Film Festival at the Piccadilly Circus, London Trocadero in October 2006 and was part of the Official Selection film programme at the Flipside film festival in May 2008

    Anarchy is the prize of a matured civilization/humanity; it is the 'system' at which only a society of individuals who have brutalized each other for eons and LEARNED FROM IT can finally arrive. These fools who are posting shallow, hateful piss below mine show that we've not come close to weeding out the stupid, the aggressive and the insecure from our gene pool. Anarchy is freedom reserved for the responsible, the mature, compassionate, the secular, and there can be no need for baby-sitters.

    Crass will be remembered, unlike all the self serving bell ends in the stock exchange for example
