An exploration of military abuse through the eyes of an embedded film crew accompanying soldiers escorting draft-dodgers and undesirables across the desert.

7.30pm-8.45 KANDAHAR
A story of life for women under the Taliban told through the search for one lost girl.

9.15-9.30pm COPS

************ ********* **

They're not opening events any more unfortunately as money / amount of work / oh-fuck-is-that-a-cracked-sewer-pipe-and-is-that-people-shit-i-have-in-this-open-wound-on-my-finger have delayed things a little. The space is still useable though and the event is still on and looking groovy. There may even be a functioning toilet on the same floor as the film showing - progress indeed.

And it's a good chance to have a nose at how the social centre's coming along.
