*Terrorists - The kids they sentenced*

A screening to support those arrested in last years so called "terror
raids".

This Swedish documentary explores the story's of several activists arrested
during anti globalisation protests at a European Union summit.  It is about
the sentences given to demonstrators arrested during and after the Gotheburg
Riots in conjunction with the EU summit in Gothenburg in 2001. The film uses
interviews and police footage to explore why the demonstrators were there,
the brutal police response to the protests and the arrests during the
protests. Several of those arrested received prison sentences and this film
looks at how the state portrays those that oppose it as violent and
extremist. A heartfelt and powerful look behind the cliches and violent
imagery the mainstream media uses.

The film will be preceded by two short films about activism and protest
movements in Aotearoa.

All proceeds from the screening will go to support those arrested in last
years terror raids
