The Christie File is a unique personal record of some of the extraordinary events, politics, ideas and people which distinguished the sixties and seventies as a crucial period in the life and death struggle against the all-powerful state, the ubiquitous multinationals, reaction and arbitrary authority.
Stuart Christie was a Scottish anarchist writer and publisher. As an 18-year-old Christie was arrested while carrying explosives to assassinate the Spanish caudillo General Franco. He was later alleged to be a member of the Angry Brigade, but was acquitted of related charges. He went on to found the Cienfuegos Press publishing house and in 2008 the online Anarchist Film Channel which hosts films and documentaries with anarchist and libertarian themes.
