Zemsta Jokera i pasożytów
The Revenge of Joker and Parasites

Summary/Abstract: "Joker" (dir. Todd Phillips, 2019) and "Parasite" (dir. Bong Joon-ho, 2019), winners of the main awards in Cannes and Venice in 2019, speak in different languages about the growing rebellion of the excluded. This is not a silent rebellion of the masses described by Ortega y Gasset, consisting of passive resistance to possible changes that destroy the status quo of the middle class, but an active, often uncontrolled protest consisting in taking over public space and demanding participation in the distribution of goods reserved for the rich. But "Parasite" subtly warns of one more factor that may accelerate this process of growing crowd dissatisfaction in the near future: global warming. A heavy downpour twice affects the flow of events in the film. The artists are warning us!
