Zurich 1994 - a group of young artists looking for possibilities to interfere in the area of social politics.

Apparently the most obvious subject is the widely discussed problem with drugs. In the last years the increasing number of mainly young people using drugs and getting addicted to them has become one of the most urgent concerns in Zurichs daily politics. Highly emotional arguments used by mass media, politicians and various involved organizations led to a kind of inertia in the public discussion - it seems almost impossible to find a way between humanitarian first - or last - aid and violent repression.

Not being caught in this net of enduring hard liners fights, the group seeks for means and ways to show that there is a chance to interfere directly in this highly explosive subject.
