Movie: Genoa 2001 - Red Zone

G8 summit in Genoa - 2001 Reasons for protests, big protests and conflicts with police. http://www.indymedia.org.uk 66 min,

Indymedia UK presents 'Genoa: Red Zone' - a hard-hitting film which presents the real story of those brutal Italian days of protest. Eight months in the making with a cast of thousands this hour-long documentary does not shy from the truth. Staggering images of violence provide gritty realism yet the beauty of resistance shines through. Despite the repression, a multitude of voices were heard in Genova: Landless Peruvian peasants stood side by side with Sicilian cheese farmers; national boundaries were overturned as an global body of people demanded a world built on social and environmental equality. That flame - it appears - is impossible to extinguish.
