Free Party: A Folk History
Saturday 11 November, 2023 6pm
All they wanted was the freedom to party. The State saw them as the enemy within.
This DIY indie film follows the birth of the UK’s free party movement in the late 1980s and early 1990s, a meeting between urban ravers and the new age travellers during Thatcher’s last days in power, and the explosive years that followed, leading up to the infamous Castlemorton free festival in 1992 – the largest ever illegal rave.
Screening as part of Doc’n Roll Festival 2023.
GFT, 12 Rose Street, G3 6RB
