DVDs of the films ‘The Battle for Broadway Market’ by
Emily James and ‘5 ½ roofs’ by Sepp Brudermann are available now.
the proceeds will all go towards paying Spirit’s rent
arrears for December and January?

The DVDs will be ready by Friday this week (ie now) and
available @ £8 and £6 respectively, if you buy direct from Spirit's shop in Broadway Market, Hackney.

To order copies by post, please send cheques (payable to L. G.
Grant) to:- The Spirit of Broadway Market, 71
Broadway Market, London E8 4PH

£9 for ‘The Battle of Broadway Market - including
P&P
£7 for ‘5 ½ roofs’ - including P&P
£14 for both DVDs - including P&P

both films are quality productions. '5 1/2 roofs' is a film about squatting and features b'way mkt in the final section. 'the battle for b'way mkt' is the definitive record of the occupation and campaign. essential purchase for those who wish to be inspired by what local people can achieve when confronted by gentrification and corrupt local authorities...

Considering that Amazon sponsors Libcom I wouldn't worry about it

Article about 5 + 1/2 roofs on the Mute site at the moment:

Quote:
Creative and professional class squatters are being lauded in The Financial Times as socially responsible agents of regeneration. Meanwhile, the UK’s market-driven housing crisis is making squatting more necessary and more insecure. Matthew Hyland analyses the changing social and political composition of squatting, and swings a wrecking ball at 5 1/2 Roofs, a recently released documentary ‘about’ squatters which claims to reveal a ‘rarely seen layer of London life’

Its not very well formatted tho sad
