"A hilarious look at how artists take a stand in order to carve out an area for art" – Seattle Tablet
In the summer of 2000, San Francisco artists, faced with a de facto "strike" brought on by the rising rents and rampant development accompanying the ersatz "new economy," decided to strike back. This film chronicles the ensuing dance, theater, music, and mayhem that took place on the streets of one of culture and community's last and most endangered strongholds, The Mission district of San Francisco. Art Strike is back. Art Strike's back.
