NOTES

Title from title frames

While alone in an abandoned television studio, two militants, Emile Rousseau and Patricia Lumumba, 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. Directed by Jean-Luc Godard, LE GAI SAVOIR was nominated for the Golden Berlin Bear at the **Berlin International Film Festival**
