the movie crew at springboard art fair


I was invited to exhibit at springboard art fair,
an opportunity I wanted to share with everyone involved in this project.
It was also a reason to offer everyone who helped in the project to make
art with them or for them. So I sent everyone involved a message:

Heyo,
I’m gonna be part of @springboardartfair in june,
where i want to build a stall with goodies to sell
so that we raise some budget for the movie and pay you also for being in it.
I was thinking, maybe you wanna contribute an illustration or zine or other artwork?
then all money we get for the thing goes to you for being actor in the movie :D
maybe we can make a qr code with tikkie or smth like that so people can easily scan that
and the money goes directly to your account.
I can print it out for you, because we can print for cheap woopwoop.
Lemme know if you would like t join our getting money from rich people :D

Under my name the UFF went to the fair to sell our usual little items,
with on top of that the items we printed especially for the fair.
We printed a little flyer especially for this fair that said the following:

We need A BIG LOG OF CASH to finance the EDITING, PAYING OFF CULTURAL ART WORKERS AND TO SPREAD OUR
ANARCHIST RAT PROPAGANDA out there AROUND THE GLOBE (っ(っ◔◡◔)っ
♥ Everyone who participated the project has been contacted with the question if they want to sell something in the art fair
and if they want us to help them to create something together. This is how the movie project is currently evolving into
a longer term activist-artist solidarity project, where the United Fried Front helps a bunch of their homies who helped them
make the movie, to realize their work and to sell it. ♥
~ Help us tell our story of the VIOLENT SQUAT EVICTION
IN OUR OWN WORDS, ON OUR OWN TERMS ~

We made like 500 euros in total, of which 400 went to the expenses me and francis had
to make the movie. We offered everyone the money they had made in the fair,
but most people refused to take it and donated it to the project.

>> forward to post-production >>
