Projekt A - A Journey to Anarchist Projects in Europe
February. 04,2016
PROJEKT A is a documentary that resists the common clichés about anarchism to instead show anarchist ideas of a society in which no one shall have the power to control knowledge, natural resources, land, soil or other people. After inspiring over 25,000 German cinema-goers, this award-winning documentary about anarchism and anarchist projects in Europe is now available on VoD! “Projekt A stirs up the audience and is grippingly shot, getting close to the kinds of tenacious people who are so vital to change in our society.” (kinokino) “…a cinematic portrait, not of anarchy, but of anarchists. A story, not of possibilities, necessities or even failure, but a depiction of achievements, initiative, action, ideas, as well as success.” (kino-zeit.de) Audience Award Filmfest Munich

To all those who have watched it: I hope you enjoyed it as much as I do.
This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.
The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.
Anarchism is Greek for "whatever", apparently. This documentary displays several incongruent people and groups, who are attributed as "anarchists". There is a group in Athens who have turned a parking lot, which used to be frequented by drug dealers, into a park or public garden. There is a trade union in Barcelona, which calls its system "anarchosyndicalism", even though I couldn't really make out the difference to representative democracy. There is a professional protester in Germany, who leaves jail after having vandalized army property, and who later chains herself to a railroad track in order to obstruct the transportation of nuclear waste.This movie left me with the feeling that "anarchism" is the vaguest of political labels on the market.
