Debord by Assayas
The prestigious French director Olivier Assayas will analyze Situationism, a political-artistic movement founded and directed by one of his main influences: the philosopher and filmmaker Guy Debord. His conversation will focus on Debord's scarce but powerful filmography, with special emphasis on "The society of the spectacle", a fundamental manifesto in the criticism of culture and society of the 20th century.
