Barber Westchester

Jonni Pepper-GoLions | 2022 | 90' | English 

Barber Westchester is a movie about a budding astronomer who ignores everything in their life because they're scared to pay attention, so they gray it all out and turn things into amorphous blobs and pay attention only to outer space. They finally get an internship at NASA, and on the first day finds out space is fake and NASA is a sham. So they have to figure out what to do after that.

Barber Westchester is an independent feature film. The film had no major backing and was fully funded by individual monthly donations from Patreon supporters.

Anarchist Group Amsterdam (AGA), in collaboration with Filmhuis Cavia, welcomes you back to the Amsterdam Anarchist Film Festival. Seven long years after our 2019 edition, we return with an exciting programme of films meant to bring hope, anger, joy and a call to action against an ever more absurd and crumbling capitalist reality that drifts into the future on the waves of war, genocide, environmental destruction and the looming rise of techno-fascism.

From December 4th to 6th at Filmhuis Cavia, we seek to create an oasis of resistance with screenings, talks and discussions meant to build solidarity, community and nourishment for the soul and mind. Our selection of films will explore varied topics: from critiques of patriarchal norms and historical anarchist struggles to absurd loops of gender-bending fun and postcolonial malaise.
