Accidental Anarchist

John Archer, Clara Glynn / United Kingdom / 2017 / East European Premiere / 83 min.


synopsis

Disillusioned by the foreign policy of the West, high-ranking diplomat Carne Ross begins to take an interest in anarchist theory and practice. The film captures the unexpected transformation of a supporter of the status quo into a seeker of social alternatives by working with the motif of a journey, which we see from Ross’s passionate perspective.
