Bristol Space Invasion - Autonomous Days of Action 2008

The 11th & 12 of April 2008 were international days of action in defence of squats and autonomous spaces (see http://april2008.squat.net ). In Bristol enraged creatives took a building in the centre of town turned it into an exibition and music space and did a carnival parade to contest the impending grip of corporate interests on our city - the luxury flats, displacement of social housing, eviction of squats, closure of clubs and shopping centre expansion to name but a few elements. This film was shot on a normal digital stills camera set to video mode - I hope it gives a flavour of what went on.

Well manoeuvred Goose-Boy, I was in a mardy-day mode till I found this. In fact I'll even forgive that cacophonic digital afterbirth at the start.

Stay Alert.
