Sinopse
Human minds are corrupted by the thought that they are the superior one. The reality is often contradictory.
Vivemos em um mundo onde os poderosos nos enganam. Nós sabemos que eles mentem. Eles sabem que nós sabemos que mentem. Eles não se importam. Dizemos que nos importamos, mas não fazemos nada e nada muda. É normal. Bem-vindo ao mundo pós-verdade. Como chegamos onde estamos agora?
Sekiuchi, o presidente do poderoso clã Yakuza Sannokai, arma e instiga a morte entre os pequenos clãs da família e a pequena família Murase, de forma a tomar a região controlada pelo chefe Murase e centralizar em si o poder do grupo Sannokai.

Arguing that advertising not only sells things, but also ideas about the world, media scholar Sut Jhally offers a blistering analysis of commercial culture's inability to let go of reactionary gender representations. Jhally's starting point is the breakthrough work of the late sociologist Erving Goffman, whose 1959 book The Presentation of the Self in Everyday Life prefigured the growing field of performance studies. Jhally applies Goffman's analysis of the body in print advertising to hundreds of print ads today, uncovering an astonishing pattern of regressive and destructive gender codes. By looking beyond advertising as a medium that simply sells products, and beyond analyses of gender that tend to focus on either biology or objectification, The Codes of Gender offers important insights into the social construction of masculinity and femininity, the relationship between gender and power, and the everyday performance of cultural norms.

At a time when powerlessness and resignation carry the day, Noam Chomsky's work is a radical antidote for all those who want to put an end to the factory of powerlessness and its intellectual media star watchdogs. Theoretician of language, born in Philadelphia in 1928, Noam Chomsky revolutionized linguistics with the "generative grammar." But Chomsky is also a political analyst involved in all political struggles for decades. His clear analysis and rational ideological mechanisms of our societies is a crucial resource for critical thinking today.

How do you escape a loop?
Isaías nunca ouviu falar de mecânica quântica ou de universos paralelos. Esta noite a sua percepção da realidade será irremediavelmente alterada.

A man walks towards the camera down the end of a street to the sound of 'Jesus’ Blood Never Failed Me Yet', a composition by Gavin Bryars based on a loop of an anonymous homeless man singing the song. The man’s voice is progressively intensified by an instrumental accompaniment, which increases in density and richness, before the whole thing gradually fades out. Dwoskin’s film was produced to be shown during the premiere of Jesus' Blood Never Failed Me Yet at the Queen Elizabeth Hall, London in December 1972. For Dwoskin, it represents “… the singing voice of the last days of a London drunk (anonymous) as the orchestra raises him to heaven. The faint ghost image of a figure swims gradually to you through the grains of film low light…”
