“David Cronenberg’s film with Robert Pattinson in the main role is a hypnotic examination of our modern anxieties about the de-humanization brought on by wealth, power, and technology.”
Well this is an interesting concept for a film festival. Â Cosmopolis will be screening at 10.15 am on 12 February 2016. Â Ticket information is here.
According to Corporate Bodies Facebook:
“There is a large variety of beautiful, scary, hilarious, unsettling (art house) films that inform us about organizational life. Its bright and its dark sides, its people, its systems, its possible futures and heritages, its spectacles and bare lives, its hopes, dreams, its games, lusts and greed.
As it turns out, the most exciting of these films highlight aspects of organization that receive little attention in mainstream management literature or academic texts. Exploiting the absurdity, ambiguity, non-sense or irrationality that is also inherent to the world of organizations, filmmakers cater to those who want to rethink organizations, business, management or leadership.
As viewers we are invited to be confused again, to question our basic assumptions and deepest beliefs, and to develop and discuss new perspectives on what it means to organize and be organized.
CORPORATE BODIES is a gathering of students, scholars, artists, directors, writers, managers, CEO’s, politicians and above all: film aficionados.
Films, discussions, lectures, thinking, eating, drinking, dancing, relaxing, and all those things that make a film fest a real fest.”
