About the Prizes

 


Le Gai Savoir (1969)
> IMDB link
While alone in an abandoned television studio, two militants, Emile Rousseau (Jean-Pierre Léaud) and Patricia Lumumba (Juliet Berto), have a discourse on language. Referring to spoken word as "the enemy" - the weapon used by the establishment to confuse liberation movements - the two deconstruct the meanings of sounds and images in an attempt to 'return to zero' and truly experience the joy of learning.

 



La Chinoise (1967)
> IMDB link
Jean-Luc Godard presents one of his most contentious and political films focusing on a small group of French students who want to change the world by using any means necessary. After studying Mao and the growth of communism in China, the students decide that they must use terrorism to ignite their own revolution.
