Beautiful Exploitation. Notes on the Un-free Minions
Beautiful Exploitation. Notes on the Un-free Minions

Summary/Abstract: The article is an analysis of film series about Minions, treated as a fairytale representation of the working class. The animated series analyzed is based on such paradoxes as: the visibility of the working class (but on limited principles); the use of a class language and a naturalized inability to promote; the extraction of homosocial desire of Minions and its ban; the presentation of capitalism as a slavery system and its praise. Minions would be a testimony to fear of social change and a late response. The author also seeks to answer the question about the reason why such working class performances are directed to children.
