Skoros, the ‘Give What You Can, Take What You Need’ Store in Exarchia, Athens

Strongly recommended by our Athens correspondent, Penhy Travlou:

“This is a collaborative ethnographic film about Skoros, an anti-consumerist collective in Exarcheia, Athens, that run a space where people could come and give, take, or give and take goods and services without any norms of reciprocity. Soon after came the Greek “Crisis”, a new kind of “here and now” focusing less on trying to do things differently and more on urgency, a need to provide solidarity to an increasing number of people that were nearing and falling below the poverty line.”
