Nina Power discussing November
Hito Steyerl Nina Power
Nina’s going to talk about November, by Hito Steyerl: what and how the film thinks, or about what and how it might makes us think (which is connected, but not the same thing), by watching, and it discussing (with you?).

No Ready Made Men – Performance
Ueinzz
