(P/B) THE DEATH OF CINEMA

Παρουσίαση

(. . .) This book is an elegy to the thousands copies of films being destroyed every day, all over the world, due to the lack of a global conservation strategy and the blatant indifference of some governments and the very same people who once paid money to make those films available to all. Paolo has drawn with clinical precision (and a welcome touch of irony) the picture of a worldwide crisis that commands our unconditional concert. His portrait of a culture ignoring the loss of its image is a devastating moral tale: there is something very wrong with the way we are taught to dismiss the art of seeing as something ephemeral and negligible.
