The event was a free viewing of a film by BiP hosted by Channel 1. In BiP’s words it is ” raw, crudely put together, sometimes painful, sometimes celebratory. It’s bursts of action too fast to register and then a lot of dead silence between those bursts.This is me unfiltered.” The event drew a huge crowd and while during the film there was no audio or visual recording Chris and Gary documented the events prior to and subsequent to the showing.
