Setting off with a free Roller Coaster ride
7pm Sun 28th Oct.
Free screenings of indy documentaries & a Roller Coaster of video clips offering inspiring glimpses of a brighter future contrasted by dark cameos on media deception - all intertwined with a bit of fun and audio visual extravaganza.
Life's a roller coaster And the ride goes up and down and round and round and it has thrills and spills and it's very brightly coloured and it's very loud. And of course it's fun for a while.
People have been on the ride for a long time, and some begin to question: ..... "Is this real? ..... Or is this just a ride?"
Bill Hicks American comedian Dec 1961 - Feb 1994
