Joy of Learning
1969 · Movie · 92 min · ★ 6.1
In this classic film from Jean-Luc Godard, two militants have a discourse on language while alone in an abandoned television studio. 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.
