Le 14 décembre 2019, dans le cadre du Workshop “Political Education for Human Transformation", Université Paris 1 Panthéon Sorbonne, 17 rue de la Sorbonne, 75005 Paris, escalier C, 1er étage, salle Lalande Taking the phenomenon of the cinematographic artialisation of recent revolutionary and terrorist behavior seriously encourages us to look in some films for authentic thoughts that can broaden the theoretical framework in which we try to relate to contemporary phenomena such as the relationship of skepticism to digital imagery and fanaticism. One of these thoughts is to recognize the ambivalence of moving images, which can teach us to contain our skepticism by making cinema an instrument for revealing the beauty and goodness of the ordinary, but which can also present us with a world so perfect and seductive that it makes ordinary existence in the real world seem too imperfect and painful to deserve to be lived.
