Art, Anarchy and Activism discusses contemporary art, anarchism and activism, ranging from radical video to puppetry, comics, painting, poetry, printmaking and punk. Chicago's Active Resistance Anarchist gathering in 1996, the Seattle shut-down of the WTO, demonstrations in Washington, D.C. against the IMF/World Bank, and Quebec City's anti-FTAA protests are all discussed.

Included are interviews with World War 3 artists Kevin Pyle and Susan Simensky; Montreal cabaret artist and poet Norman Nawrocki; Philadelphia puppet-maker Matti Hart; curator and activist Nato Thompson; Josh MacPhee, author of Stencil Pirates; Chicago street artist Ben Rubin; Vancouver's Mecca Normal; Toronto artists Rachel Rosen, Paul James, Kika Thorne and Adrian Blackwell, and Richard Mock, illustrator for Anarchy Magazine.

Guernica: A Political Odyssey discusses the political history of Picasso's most famous painting, from its inception during the Spanish Civil War to the Iraq war of 2003.

Included are interviews with art historians Francis Fracina, Patricia Leighten, conservator Maria Garcia Yelo of the Museo National Centro de Arte Reina Sophia, and activist Emily McGiffen. Featuring new music by composer Wolf Edwards.
