Documentary Screening: “A Pervert’s Guide to Ideology”

The Psychoanalytic Society, USS, and GFSS present a screening of the documentary:

“A Pervert’s Guide to Ideology”

Documentary filmmaker, Sophie Fiennes, and Slovene Psychoanalyst, Linguist, and Philosopher, Slavoj Žižek, team up to tackle big questions like “What are the mechanisms that shape our beliefs?” And “How do they effect our behavior?”

By using a Marxist framework, Žižek interrogates pop culture’s influence on subjective ideology from Coca-Cola to the heavy metal band – Rammstein to the film Jaws and everything in between. Embark on a kaleidoscopic ride through the world of pop culture and ideology with the bearded, bulky raconteur that is Slavoj Žižek.

Snacks and refreshments will be provided.

Stay for a short discussion after the screening.
