Under capitalism, a contradiction exists between the production of art as a commodity versus the production of art as a radical force. We’re releasing The Lovers for free to explore this contradiction in a democratized forum.
The Lovers was shot in five days, in one room, for less than 5,000 dollars.
We encourage critical engagement with the film through discussions on radical politics/art, independent film distribution, and anything else you find relevant. Read the full statement here: pkeye.substack.com/p/why-rele... or at www.640films.com/post/why-rel....
