F[r]EE uniquely collects the confessions of the protagonists of the zero hour of tekno music and free parties, a mysterious clandestine world.
A behind the scene across three decades, told by the pioneers of the longest living counter culture.
"A free party has the power to transform an abandoned location into a space where you can have a party"
Andrea Zambelli
"You don’t have to dance, you don’t have to bring alcohol or smoke, you don’t have to do anything, you can just enjoy space"
Ryan - Total Resistance
"It was a technological zero-hour, it was a drug zero-hour, and it was a cultural zero-hour: it was the beginning of something"
69db - Spiral Tribe
"There’s a lot of good things in the underground scene and not just squat parties"
Chris Liberator
"It’s difficult that the free party movement will end: there’s always someone brave enough to carry on"
Black Qirex
"The young people are frustrated about expansive clubs that close early and have lot of Id checking: the free party provides an alternative"
Molly Macindoe
"There has to be an equilibrium between having a free party with good time and continuing till you piss everybody off: If you piss everybody off of course the law is going to come in"
Robert Black – Megadog
"A free party is not just music and speaker: it’s also a situation with shows, art and happy people"
