Hafla bila hudud - festival without borders

From the 6th to the 12th September 2010 a radical festival of music, art, action, performance and play was held in
Calais, Northern France.
The port of Calais is home to several hundred migrants from Africa, Afghanistan, Iraq and many other places, trying to cross the channel to the UK. These migrants are the target of brutal repression by the French state, subject to regular police raids, arrests, beatings, and all-round miserable living conditions.
This festival without borders seeks to bring us together, "legals" and "illegals", channeling our resistance with music, action, and play.
