Pervert’s Guide to Ideology, The

Synopsis

Sophie Fiennes’ sequel to THE PERVERT’S GUIDE TO CINEMA, sees Slovenian psychoanalytic philosopher Slavoj Zizek examining ideology - the mechanisms that shape our beliefs and practices - through the lens of film and the cinema. By examining iconic moments in movie history, and relating them to contemporary and historic events, the film exposes how cinema, as the art of dreams, reveals much about the form and status of the ideologies that drive modern society.
