Wednesday, March 9:
We are super excited to show Adam Curtis’s most recent documentary-
It Felt Like A Kiss - 2009, 54:00
“the story of an enchanted world that was built by American power as it became supreme…and how those living in that dream world responded to it…”
“It Felt Like a Kiss started life as an experimental film I made for the BBC last year. My aim was to try and find a more involving and emotional way of doing political journalism on TV. I decided to make a film about something that has always fascinated me - how power really works in the world. To show that power is exercised not just through politics and diplomacy - but flows through our feelings and emotions, and shapes the way we think of ourselves and the world.”
-Adam Curtis
We will be meeting as always in the screening room (3226) in the UIC Art and Design Hall, 400 S. Peoria, at 7:00 p.m.
See you there
