An internet campaign declared this past April 15 Steal Something from Work Day. In response, Subversive Action Films presents a new short-length production, Steal Something Every Day. SAF supports individual actions against capital, but recognizes the need for collective action to end the daily ritual of forced labor.
The production will be subtitled to Spanish soon.

About the Premier of The Chicago Conspiracy in Chile
September 13th, 2009 by j
Subversive Action Films presented the pre-premier of The Chicago Conspiracy in Chile on September 1. We are pleased to announce that the pre-premier in Cine Arte Normandie was a success. The theatre was filled with approximately 750 people, greatly surpassing the capacity of the space. The activity also included the performance of music groups: Kaskivano, Rocío Peña, Daniel Gómez, Subverso, Salvaje Decibel, y Melómanos Rap.
Later on September 3, the collective brought the documentary to the emblematic población La Victoria. The Chicago Conspiracy was shown on the street 30 de Octubre, named for the date of the land occupation that created La Victoria in 1957. The premier was a great success. Residents of the población showed significant support for the production, above all the presentation of La Victoria in the documentary.
With great expectations on September 4, Subversive Action Films arrived at the población Villa Francia, the neighborhood where young militants of the MIR Eduardo and Rafael Vergara were gunned down by police in 1985. The activity consisted of the documentary showing and diverse music groups.
The collective will continue to show the movie in social centers and universities throughout Chile. Review the website for future dates.
