Get Rid of Yourself

Get Rid of Yourself serves as a video-film-tract that addresses the resurgence of political activism within the context of Empire. The film's origins trace back to the riots in Genoa in 2001, using original footage that is then restructured to emphasize a collective experience rather than a traditional narrative. This approach highlights the disjunction between sound and image, employing cheap video effects and performance to create a rhythmic and complex form of address.

The film's exploration of history and politics is unconventional, as it presents a scenario devoid of characters or a typical storyline. Instead, it focuses on the crisis of a return to history, challenging viewers to engage with the material in a new way. Collectors will appreciate the film's experimental nature and its critical take on the media's representation of political events.
