THE KINGDOM OF SURVIVAL seeks out radical and alternative visions that challenge the status quo and features Prof. Noam Chomsky, Joe Bageant, Dr. Mark Mirabello.

The Kingdom of Survival is an interdisciplinary documentary combining speculative travelogue and investigative journalism in order to trace possible links between survivalism, spirituality, art, radical politics, outlaw culture, alternative media and fringe philosophy.
Circling through themes of utopianism, globalized capitalism, anarchism, intellectual and spiritual self-defense, religion and art, the film investigates physical and psychological survival strategies practiced by groups and individuals in a conflict-ridden and confused post-post- modern world.
Maverick writer and filmmaker M.A. Littler hits the outlaw highway in search of visions that challenge the status quo.
On his journey Littler crosses paths with renowned linguist and dissident Prof. Noam Chomsky, outlaw historian Dr. Mark Mirabello, gonzo journalist Joe Bageant, legendary reclusive cabin builder Mike Oehler, anarchist book publisher Ramsey Kanaan, egalitarian radio host Sasha Lilley and folk musician Will "The Bull" Taylor.
Together they explore radical and alternative visions for the 21st century.
Bob Meisenbach, Mike Oehler, Sasha Lilley, Ramsey Kanaan of AK/PM Press and Will "The Bull" Taylor.

The Kingdom of Survival est un documentaire interdisciplinaire qui combine enquête-itinérante-spéculative et journalisme d'investigation afin de tracer des liens possibles entre le survivalisme, la spiritualité, l'art, la radicalité politique, la culture hors-la-loi, les contre-médias et la philosophie de marge.
Naviguant autour des thèmes de l'utopie, du capitalisme mondialisé, de l'anarchie, de l'auto-défense intellectuelle et spirituelle, de la religion et de l'art, le film étudie des stratégies de survie physique et psychologique telles qu'elles peuvent être pratiquées par des groupes ou des individus qui ne se reconnaissent plus dans une société post-moderne régie par la confusion et les conflits permanents.
M.A Littler, écrivain et cinéaste dissident, taille la route à travers l'Amérique à la recherche de visions qui défient le statut quo.
Au cours de son voyage il croise le chemin d'un objecteur de consciences et linguiste renommé, Noam Chomsky, d'un universitaire spécialisé dans l'histoire des Hors-la-lois, Mark Mirabello, d'un écrivain et journaliste gonzo, Joe Bageant, d'un légendaire ermite et constructeur de cabanes à 50 dollars, Mike Oheler, d'un éditeur de littérature anarchiste, Ramsey Kanaan, d'une productrice de radio égalitaire, Sasha Lilley, et d'un musicien de Folk, Will « the Bull » Taylor.
Ensemble ils explorent et proposent des visions radicales et alternatives pour le XXI ème siècle.

  • THE DOWNLOAD/DVD will be out in December at SLOWBOAT FILMS DOTT KOMM.

  • The film's world premiere will take place at the MONTREAL WORLD FILM FESTIVAL on August 26th. The U.S. Tour will begin on September 6th. The U.K. premiere will be held at RAINDANCE 2011, a Euro Tour will take place in the month of October and the DVD/DOWNLOAD sale will begin in November.

  • Sure would be nice if you'd give the world some idea when this will be released. No info here, none on your website. Or maybe you're hiding info about the film's release?

  • we certainly don't intend to keep any information from our audience - especially not the release date.

    the film is done and festival submissions are circulating.

    we are planning a simultaneous release consisting of theatrical dirstibution, television, dvd and hd download.

    the launch will happen on the day of the world premiere - that date depends on festival acceptance.

    however, we're all convinced that we are talking weeks rather than months.

    more information will follow promptly.

  • Further information on the film can be found at our website.
