Skoros: Anti-consumption in Crisis

This collaborative ethnographic film is about Skoros, an anti-consumerist collective in the Exarcheia district of Athens that runs a space where people can come and give, take, or exchange goods and services without any norms of reciprocity. Soon after the Greek economic crisis set in, the group has undertaken a new kind of “here-and-now” action, focusing less on trying to do things differently and more on urgency, or the need to provide solidarity to an increasing number of people who are nearing or have already fallen below the poverty line.
