Abstract (English)

"No Permanent Address is a three channel video portrait of the New People’s Army, a Maoist guerrilla group in the Philippines. Shot over several months while living amongst their members, the work speaks to the persistence of communist ideologies at a time in which Boulos suggests “capitalism has begun to lose its sense of inevitability.” Resisting the impulse found in most political documentary to focus on victims, Boulos looks at the members of the insurgent group as quotidian heroes as he records their daily activities and speaks with them about notions of love, sacrifice, revolution and ideology." -- Publisher's website.
