Radical Movie Night
Radical movie night is usually the second Thursday of every month-- this month we have schedule it for the third!
We will be showing WR: Mysteries of the Organism by Dusan Makavejev
This is a dense film that cuts up footage of a primary plot of two young Yugoslavian girls, one a politico and the other a sexpot, and an affair with a visiting Russian skater. Mixing metaphors of Russia's relationship with Yugoslavia, inter cut with footage and interviews with Wilhelm Reich and Al Goldstein of Screw magazine. The film applies Reich's theories of Orgone energy and analogies of Stalinism as a form of Freudian sexual repression. Was banned in Yugoslavia shortly after it was made.
