Your democracy baby is ugly

On 22nd June, our friends at The Alternative UK kindly hosted an online screening of Out Of The Ruins. The Alternative is a political platform but also a question: If politics is broken, what’s the alternative? About 40 people gave up their Monday evening to watch our film, which is a response to very similar questions.

Patrick introduced the film and took part in a Q&A session afterwards, which was conducted by Mary Valiakas of Oi Polloi, a development agency working on a renaissance of Greece as a crucible of civic innovation. The Q&A covered issues of democracy, capitalism and activism and you can watch both it and Patrick’s introduction below.

We are keen to do more of these communal screenings and Q&A sessions. Please get in touch if you would like our help to organise one.
