We already have exclusive footage of the campaign at grass roots level. We followed activists, leaders and local communities for 22 days. Now we want to tell their story in the unfolding drama.</i>"</div><div><br></div><div>"<i>A radical government takes on the world! Documentary: the inside story of Syriza's first 100 days.</i>"</div><div><br></div><div>The problem with the big networks is that they just aren't reporting on these developments right now. Paul Mason knows this and wants to give it the attention to detail it deserves. He says:</div><div><div><br></div><div>"<i>Even the best of the networks can't tell this story in the detail it deserves. We have low-profile camera crews, Greek speakers, with unparalleled access. And we are shooting now.</i>"</div><div><br></div><div>Working alongside Paul is Theopi Skarlatos who directed the feature length documentary Love in the Time of Crisis (2014). She says:</div><div><br></div><div>"<i>In January 2015 we started filming the Greek crisis, because: We knew the election would matter to the world. We had unique access.

The book that takes p2p out of academia and niche obsessions into the mainstream.</i><br></div><div><br></div><div>Coming in August 2015.</div><div><br></div><div>Thank you Paul for doing this work.
