UntitledUniversity professor Laird demonstrates how we need rest and relaxation to be at our best. (The Prelinger Archives are a source of educational material, mainly ordered by theme, giving a vision of the dark side, the underbelly, perhaps naive of the American dream and the America that is ten hidden behind the media curtain.)
UntitledTales from the Periphery looks at the changes currently taking place in the world's second largest river basin, that of the River Plate Delta in Argentina, and reveals aspects of the lives of its people. The everyday rhythm of these lives slowly unfolds before a camera which picks out detail via a subjective approach, thus opening up a new existential reality for the spectator.
UntitledApril 26th, 2007: sixteen researchers and activists give sixteen scathing views of the world that Nicolas Sarkozy is preparing for us. The reality of the right, full of self-confidence on the threshold of assuming power. An uncompromising deconstruction of Sarkozy-style rhetoric, which seems likely to remain relevant for some years.
Debord's 1975 Refutation of all judgments whether in praise or hostile which have up to now been brought on the film called Society of the Spectacle summaries its complex mission in its title. In this 20- minute film, Debord addresses the criticism directed at his film, “The Society of the Spectacle”, in various French newspapers. Not only does it remain unique in the history of film for its unprecedented and never repeated project; it also hits his targets directly and with the same power as the attacks directed at him. For the press is not a dialog with its subjects, any more than a film is. That a film should talk back directly to the press publicly shows up the unilateral nature of the press. It is a court with no appeal.

UntitledThis documentary dissects a slanderous aspect of cinematic history that has run virtually unchallenged form the earliest days of silent film to today's biggest Hollywood blockbusters. Featuring Jack Shaheen, the film explores a long line of degrading images of Arabs--from Bedouin bandits and submissive maidens to sinister sheikhs and gun-wielding "terrorists"--along the way offering devastating insights into the origin of these stereotypic images, their development at key points in US history, and why they matter so much today.
Untitled”Red Star”,02:49,2009 In the work of Milica Rakic the emphasis put on creating a subjective gender self-representation is moved to a broader socio-political context. By using visual and audio archive to evoke collective memory of the ideologically coloured past, the artist questions the genesis of constituting social and gender identities and their interrelations. By bringing together a fictive informal conversation between a man and a woman and images of the political past, she puts an emphasis on a deep and unconscious connection between the usual everyday understanding/playing gender roles and the influence of socio-political and ideological systems of power. The dialogue from the Milica Rakic's video contains a certain conflict present between gender positions within the framework of linguistic discourse.
