REBEL DOG:

As long as we're gliding (stumbling ??) on the path that is off the beaten path here's another one I recently come across---the 'Rebel Dog' website. Over there in Greece, the land where they riot more times a day than they eat, it seems that there's a strange apparition that manages to show up at all the exciting places. The 'Rebel Dog' has been spotted at pretty well every demonstration, riot, etc., and now he has his own website devoted to photos of his exploits. Despite government efforts of mass slaughter leading up to the Olympics Greece is infested with stray dogs and cats. The cats are something else. So flea infested that, if the cat is dozing in a place not warm enough for the bugs the fleas lift up the cat and carry it to a warmer location. Am I kidding ???

This website is great. Amuse yourself by taking a gander at what should become a new mascot for the international anarchist movement. Totally incredible. Move over Black Cat. There's a new anarchy symbol in town. You know it's been four years since we were in Greece, but I swear I saw exactly this dog rooting through the garbage on the square near Mitropolis. I know. I know. A lot of stray dogs look very much the same, but I can have my dreams. In any case, here's the intro to the website. Take a peek. It's well worth it. Is it a spoof (the bugger has a collar on) ? I don't know. What I do know and you will too if you look at the photos is that this dog is a survivor big time.

THE INSURRECTIONARY PEOPLE'S PICTURE SHOW THEATER:

Well this is a pleasant surprise. Since the demise of the Christie Books TV, which allowed downloading of a vast selection of anarchist and anarchist related films there has been a gap in the 'anarcho-net'. Stepping forward to fill this gap is 'Transcona Slim' from-wait for it- right here in Winnipeg. Check out The Insurrectionary People's Picture Show Theater blog to see this new effort a-borning. help him out with any suggestions you might have. All the best to Slim from Mollymew

NEWS FROM THE UPCOMING CHICAGO ANARCHIST FILM FESTIVAL:

The Chicago Anarchist Film Festival will be happening again this year, and they're looking for submissions. Here's the callout from the A-Infos website.

.........................

US, 9th Annual Chicago Anarchist Film Fest Seeks Submissions:

Submissions now accepted -

*- For the 9th year the Chicago Anarchist Film Festival will present a sample of films from mainstream sources, rediscovered classics and the works of filmmakers engaged in social change with an anarchist vision. Most media of all types launch attacks that distort, discredit and deny anarchists entirely. Anarchists and their allies respond with a relentless volley of images and stories that reveal, revive and invigorate a rich anarchist presence in society. -

*- Chicago Anarchist Film Festival organizers seek un- and under-distributed films and videos to include in the 2009 Chicago Anarchist Film Festival. We also welcome suggestions for titles that may inadvertently allow anarchy to seep through the cracks of the status quo. Movie collage, music videos and trailers for works-in-progress will also be considered.

Deadline- April 1, 2009

Guidelines

All entries must be submitted with an entry form. A contributors statement and any promotional material is appreciated. Please also indicate if you are available and interested in attending the festival.

All entrants will be updated on the status of their submissions. We ask the contributions be made with the anarchist spirit of community and celebration with which they will be received.
