Special Preview of PATHS THROUGH UTOPIAS
Grow Heathrow Greenhouses 7.30pm
Saturday the 19th of March
Blurring the fluid boundaries between present and future, documentary and fiction, Paths Through Utopias is a utopian road movie exploring a post-capitalist Europe. Shot during a 7 month journey in 2008 visiting ten utopian experiments, the film is half of the book-film project published in France by Editions Zones. From the direct action Climate Camp set up illegally besides Heathrow airport to a hamlet squatted by French art punks, occupied self-managed Serbian factories to a free love commune in an ex Stasi base, this magicorealist travelogue transports us to a parallel universe where money is worthless and private property has been abolished.
Film by Isabelle Fremeaux, John Jordan and Kypros Kyprianou. Music by Isa Suarez. Book by Isabelle Fremeaux and John Jordan.

"A passionate anarchist road-movie " Le Monde

"A magnificent multi-media object...it makes the promises of another world possible." Les Inrockuptibles
