DESCRIPTION:FilmWorks United International Working Class Film & Video Festival\n155 
 Sold(65 min) 2012, Greece, Greek in English sub\nBy George Panteleakis 
 Greece was selected to be the first European economic experiment with a 
 massive austerity program to privatize and destroy social services. This 
 destruction of jobs and public services led to a massive protest in May 
 2011 and this full contact documentary shows the struggle shot by the film 
 maker and activists in the struggle. Thick clouds of smoke covered the 
 angry protests around Syntagma Square (Constitution Square) on 28-29 June 
 2011, while a majority of 155 deputies of the Greek Parliament bowed down 
 to the austerity agenda. The working class, retirees and students engaged 
 in mass protests and faced violence against them by the police. Following 
 this film there will be a discussion about the role of the EU and the 
 United States in imposing IMF-WB polices of privatization and deregulation 
 in Europe. \nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zpTOlwGI6lo\n\nAll Points 
 North\n Producer: BlueArts Film, Mizgin Müjde Arslan, D: Therese Koppe, 
 Athens/ London (2013), (25 min)\nThe dream of heading North is the driving 
 motivation for Laurent and Ibrahim, two young men leaving their country of 
 Senegal in search of a better life. As undocumented migrants, they find 
 themselves trapped in Greece, bound to the Greek borders by the lack of 
 immigration papers. Before leaving their homeland their impressions of 
 Europe were very different from the harsh realities they faced once 
 arriving. For migrants such as Laurent and Ibrahim, there is no stability 
 in a better, safer land; their journeys to find such are continually 
 ongoing.\n Karl Fischbacker and Dr. Irmi Voglmayr of Labournet Austria will 
 discuss the struggles in Greece and the role of working 
 people.\nhttps://www.facebook.com/allpointsnorthdocumentary \nSee
