A very intriguing and informative hour-long Dutch documentary directed by Alexander Oey on the anarchist collective/once-upon-a-time British punk band Crass. An unlikely group on the face of it, as clearly very different personalities, aesthetics, and attitudes. And this 2006 film will seem a bit quiet in fact as most of it takes place in rural Britain, and reflects the longtime commitment of Gee Vaucher and co. towards creating an alternative communitarian living situation, which could be considered prescient of today's much more trendy (and often superficial) DIY attempts to attain some kind of utopic organic lifestyle.

This is the full-length documentary. From Wikipedia: There is No Authority But Yourself is a Dutch film directed by Alexander Oey documenting the history of anarchist punk band Crass. The film features archive footage of the band and interviews with former members Steve Ignorant, Penny Rimbaud and Gee Vaucher.
