The Yes Men Fix The World

The Yes Men Fix The World (12A)

Dir: Andy Bichlbaum and Mike Bonanno

10.00 am - 11.40 Cinema 1

Best for: Modern Studies, English, Media Studies Students.

The Yes Men are real life pranksters in this hilarious film. Mike and Andy make us look again at how politics, media, and business affect people's lives by secretly infiltrating all kinds of high powered conferences, TV stations, and political meetings, and giving bold satirical speeches. What are our rights and responsibilities as citizens of the global world? What are the rights and responsibilities of businesses, media and politicians? Can we imagine a better world – what would it look like?

This hilarious film is reminiscent of the best in satirical writing including essays such as The Modest Proposal. If Jonathan Swift was around today, he might well have been one of The Yes Men.

This screening is in partnership with the Take One Action Festival
