Marx Reloaded at The Festival of Dangerous Ideas

It's getting a little boring to keep repeating the same script, but another "sold out" audience were good enough to attend the Marx Reloaded screening at The Festival of Dangerous Ideas in east London on Saturday. Again, our sincere thanks to the festival organizers, in this case for approaching us at a relatively late stage, and for the very kind assistance of our "technical worker" (yes, you know who you are) without whom we couldn't have got the film to the venue in time.

We will have more information on selected UK cinema screenings soon (the film returns to London in April) but in the meantime please contact us if your university is interested in showing the film and we'll see what we can do. 

Marx Reloaded Screens to Full House in Athens

We would like to take one more opportunity to thank everyone at Embros Theatre for all their work in organizing the Marx Reloaded screening on Sunday, and for making the event such a roaring success. A rough estimate suggested 130 people were in attendance (a full house) and, like all events at Embros Theatre, entry was free of charge. 

Although the facilities were far from "multiplex" (a good sign) Jason Barker said he couldn't remember a more enthusiastic audience ("They even laughed at the animation") or a more dedicated, resourceful and enthusiastic organization. Long may the precious work of Kinisi Mavili continue in exploring the creative possibilities of a genuine grassroots, community-based arts and culture project. 

Marx Reloaded in Athens - Sunday 11 March 2012

Marx Reloaded will screen at 9pm, Sunday 11 March at Embros Theatre, Riga Palamidou 2, Psirri.

We are very grateful to the theatre committee and to Ilias Marmaras for helping us make this screening possible. We know that Greece is among the places where interest in Marx Reloaded ranks the highest, and after the screening an open discussion will be held with Jason Barker, the film's director, who is making the trip to Athens especially for this event. 

Embros Theatre is an occupied space in the Athens downtown area, at the district of Psirri. The occupation was initiated by the collective Kinisi Mavili in November 2011 and soon joined by the movement of Psirri residents and workers as well as other individuals. The occupation hosts projects referring to experimental cultural events, and initiates social-political forms of self-organization actions: http://mavilicollective.wordpress.com/  http://psyrri.blogspot.com/
