Showing "The Take"

In suburban Buenos Aires, thirty unemployed auto-parts workers walk into their idle factory, roll out sleeping mats, and refuse to leave.

What is possible is just about always more than anyone expects, it can even be more than some dare hope. When Argentina's once-wealthy economy imploded after years of free-market pillaging, foreign investors and the national elite pulled $40 billion out of

the country in the middle of the night while the government froze individual savings accounts. Millions of people were financially ruined in the country with Latin America’s largest middle class. Capitalism was breaking its own rules. Free trade turned out to mean whatever financial markets dictated. For Argentina, they decreed an end to general prosperity after decades of growth...

Were gonna build up a library of Anti-Capitalist films and Activist Video and house it in the Revolt Video Lab.

The idea is that you could browse through the collection and if you see something you like you can make a copy for yourself .

There would be a small cost for using the duplicator. It will be cheaper if you bring your own blanks.

If you are looking for a copy of the Take, then get in touch with Indymedia via the contact form and I will sort you out. The copy I have is recorded off CBC (Canadian TV) and there is a small station logo watermark in the bottom right hand corner of the recording, but otherwise its grand. Excellent film, really puts loads of other films like the Miami Model or We Interrupt This Empire to shame... I guess if you have the money that Klein and Lewis have then its a bit easier to take several months off and go down to Argentina!
