Twenty-fourth session of Illegal_cinema

Screening of visual material proposed by Ángela Palacios. To be preceded by a presentation of her proposal and followed by a debate.

Screening: Land of the Pharaohs (Howard Hawks, 1955). Epic Hollywood film on the building of the tomb to be the home of pharaoh Khufu and his belongings in the afterlife.

This session of Illegal_cinema, proposed by Ángela Palacios, deals with the remaking of images and estrangement and goes on to a small search into the construction of the image and the attraction this creates; specifically, it looks at the way images communicate the information in them.
