We are locked up and we an’t take it anymore.
Machine is running, but the creator doesn’t rest. She goes on producing: on the Internet, in hybrid forms, always staying LIVE. We are looking for creative gaps. We can’t stop ourselves.
This week, TV Free Europe will try to connect with you in a different way.
Through the shop windows, on the streets, breaking out of the screens.
Our program is therapeutic – a cure for you, curated by us.
Where is it happening?
>> On our ONLINE tv channel
>> in the 8th district of Budapest, in shop windows of Német utca and Karácsony Sándor utca
