Movie: Glossary of Broken Dreams

Presented at The Circle Of HOPE (2018), July 20, 2018, 11:59 p.m. (60 minutes)

Puppets! Pixels! Anime! Live action! Stock footage! Johannes gives an ideotaining cinematic revue about important political concepts. Everyone is talking about freedom! Privacy! Identity! Resistance! The Market! The Left! But, yikes, Johannes can't tolerate ignorant and topically abusive comments on the "Internet" anymore! Supported by writer Ishan Raval, Johannes explains, reevaluates, and sometimes sacrifices political golden calves of discourse. A must-see for politically interested hackers. Not to be used with false consciousness or silicone-based lubricant. A film paved with good intentions.
