Scoprire negli occhi dell'altro la nostra stessa paura, noi stessi

by Federica Martiny

[24.3.11] - "Non ho voluto! Trecento anni e sono il primo Vichingo a non aver voluto uccidere un drago!". Intorno a questa frase si tessono i fili della storia di un adolescente Vichingo e di un drago che si ritrovano protagonisti di una storica guerra tra due comunità, tra due mondi opposti e inconciliabili.

Cyborgs

edited by Andrea Torrano and Agustín Berti

[31.12.11] - The history of cinema has depicted cyborgs in many ways and in many genres, especially science fiction and horror, and, due to their constitutive ambiguity, frequently mixing them with aliens, mutants, androids, clones, homunculi, robots and monsters. Contemporary reflection on these beings and their limits, and how we could all be cyborgs today, as biologist Donna Haraway suggests in her “Cyborg Manifesto”, has found its way to the screen and has opened up a debate that goes well beyond science fiction and mainstream cinema.
