Politics of Cinema

Aaron & Isaac

Films are cultural artifacts. There is a political and artistic message in every one and we're here to document. On each episode we pick a film; sometimes current and sometimes from the riches of world cinema’s 100+ year history, and take a deep dive into what the film is really saying about the world. Both overtly and covertly.

  • Not compromised by capitalism

    With so many slippery movies and facile film discussions out there, it’s a relief to hear these thoughtful political examinations.
