The War Prayer(en)

"In 1904, disgusted by the aftermath of the Spanish-American War and the subsequent Philippine-American War, Mark Twain wrote a short anti-war prose poem called "The War Prayer." His family begged him not to publish it, his friends advised him to bury it, and his publisher rejected it, thinking it too inflammatory for the times. Twain agreed, but instructed that it be published after his death, saying famously: None but the dead are permitted to tell the truth."

De "Matrix" à "Sense8", la révolution Wachowski(fr)

From "Bound" to the queer series "Work in Progress", an exploration and deciphering of the artistic work and revolutionary career of Lana and Lilly Wachowski. "Matrix" is the soil in which all the seeds of the filmmakers' struggle were sown. Feminism, anti-capitalism, trans-identity and racial justice are encoded in trench-coat action scenes and symbol-laden metaphors. The two sisters, as uncompromising in their societal battles as they are in their experimental aesthetics, are a happy Hollywood anomaly, a real crack in the matrix it's time to rediscover.
