Part III: The New Criticism or The Left March | <<<
The surveillance of the internet by Russian Special Services is a topic
that is constantly discussed by the press, who speak about Putin's keen
interest in the subject. Connecting can be read as a simplified and ironic
commentary on these discussions. From another perspective, the work can
be said to owe something to The Matrix. Here the protagonist also disappears
into a spectral media-world just as contemporary politicians often do,
becoming little more than shadows on the TV-screen for most citizens.
In this way, a feedback loop is created with cinema influencing reality
and changing our perceptions of life.
