CANADIAN ANARCHIST MOVEMENT-MONTRÉAL:
SUMMERHILL- THE MOVIE:
From the time of the Spanish Modern School Movement and its French equivalents in the early 20th century the idea of "free schools" has been on a low boil in various countries. One of the experiments that lasted was the English Summerhill School. Next Thursday, May 20, there will be a screening of the film about this unique experiment. Here's the promo.

As part of the Festival of Anarchy, the Montreal Rad School presents films highlighting the education and miseducation of children and youth:

On THURSDAY, MAY 20 we present SUMMERHILL (UK, 2008, 100 minutes), a feature drama film based on the long-standing Summerhill radical free school. From the film synopsis: “Imagine a school where you don't have to go to lessons, you make all the rules yourself and climbing trees and building boats are definitely part of the curriculum. That school exists. It's called Summerhill and it has been there for 70 years. Maddy and Ryan attend Summerhill and find it changes them in ways they would never imagine. But then when inspectors decide the school must close, Maddy and Ryan join forces with staff and pupils in a battle that goes to the very heart of the Government. Based on a true story, Summerhill is an enchanting drama that will captivate everyone.”


Presented by the Rad School of Montreal: At the Rad School, children freely explore their interests, play, learn, live and participate in a democratic community. Children are empowered to be self-directed, socially-conscious, lifelong learners. Adults provide mentoring, facilitate activities, learn and play!
