Steal This Film!

A Swedish pro-piracy documentarist group calling itself The League of Noble Peers has just released a 32 minute long video titled Steal This Film!. The documentary is available in iPod, standard (.mov) and DVD formats.

On the video the various insiders of the Swedish pirate movement talk about how piracy evolved into a national hobby and a political movement in Sweden. The guys who founded and are running Pirate Bay give their own personal accounts on the May 31 raid. Their interviews give insight into how determined they are in promoting the pirate agenda, above all as a free speech issue. Many common Swedish filesharers are interviewed as well. Their fearless, open, consumer-style approach into piracy issues and services can be an eye-opener for many non-Swedes on how far things have really advanced in the social climate of this high-tech nation of 9 million people. There is no way Hollywood lobbyists can regain a hold on these people's minds. They all consider it given that free filesharing is here to stay and show tangible defiance against any outside pressuring on their filesharing habits.

In the true spirit of piracy, the document borrows freely material from different Hollywood movies and propaganda advertisements, combining it to the fresh interview material. The League of Noble Peers is working on continuation to this document.
