Interrupt this Program / Resilient Cities

Interrupt this Program ( AKA Resilient Cities)  is a five-part, 30-minute series that uncovers the underground arts scene in chaotic cities recovering from major traumas: war, political unrest, natural disasters or economic meltdown. Each episode profiles three or four young, determined local artists (plus one Canadian with an outsider’s perspective) who are using art to impact their city: this is art as a form of protest, as an agent of change and as a display of courage. In Athens: a photographer, an electronic pop band, a mural artist, and a writer demonstrate how art is a means of survival in the midst of a city under economic crisis.
