Hello from Action! Film & Photo Collective

2009-10-15T12:37:00.000-07:00

Welcome to Action! Film & Photo Collective's Blog

We are an open collective of people who would like to screen and produce films through sharing ideas, skills and resources.
Current projects include making an experimental film about Cotall Street squatted block and Cotall Street World Film Festival.

Our first cinema night and gathering is next week, hope you can make it!!
We are kicking off our Cotall Street World Film Festival with short films from Australia and Bulgaria.
Cotall Street is a big squatted block of approximately 90 flats, to reflect the international nature of the residents we will be showing films from as many different countries as possible. We are encouraging residents to contribute films from their country (preferably with subtitles) to us, check the flyer below for contact details.
