Synopsis: From 1957 to 1972 the Situationist International, lead by Guy Debord, formed the center of an unparalled interrogation of political and cultural relations in France. Legendary in its influence, Debord's adaption of his own 1967 book of the same name, Society of The Spectacle is by genre an essa, based primarily on pre-existing and recontextualized images. Those images include sequences from Hollywood features, East Block features, news footage, documentary footage, TV commercials, soft-core porn, and vast number of stills, some of which seem to have been shot explicitly for this film.
"This is not just a film, it is a conscious attempt to change the world." - Keith Sanborn
