Antonio Negri: A Revolt That Never Ends (2004)

Antonio Negri has provoked intense admiration and opposition throughout his career. His international bestseller, *Empire*, a critique of the modern global economy co-written with Michael Hardt, became a defining statement for the 21st century and established Negri as a prominent voice in the anti-globalization movement. *Antonio Negri: A Revolt that Never Ends* explores the controversial life of this influential philosopher, activist, prisoner, exile, and figure labeled an "enemy of the state." The film charts his origins in radical Italian left-wing movements of the 1960s and 70s, using rare archival footage of strikes, factory occupations, acts of terrorism, violent protests, and government trials. During these turbulent decades, Negri spent a decade in prison and fourteen years in exile in Paris, where he engaged in philosophical discussions with thinkers like Gilles Deleuze.
