On Wednesday, August 8th we will be screening Working Slowly (Radio Alice). This drama from 2004, set during the student uprisings of 1977, is part of our "Radical History Film Nights" series. The title of the film (the original Italian title is "Lavorare Con Lentezza") is taken from the notion of "refusal of work" (rifiuto del lavoro), as proposed by Italian autonomists during the 1960s and 1970s.





The August screening of "Radical History Film Nights" at the Cowley Club in Brighton will be Working Slowly (Radio Alice), and Italian film set during 1977 about the student uprisings and the famous radical pirate radio station Radio Alice. It's an entertaining and often funny film that illustrates the struggles that took place in Italy from the mid 1960s up until the early 1980s. It features a great rock soundtrack and also a brief cameo by the Italian autonomist philosopher Berardi "Bifo". So come along to 12 London Road next Wednesday (August 8th) at 7:30 to enjoy this rare and interesting film about a little-known (at least in the UK) period of history.
