Attitude Festival 2009
video /short & experimental film/photography festival
June 26-30, 2009

This year’s presentation of video art and the experimental film will be shown in public spaces, in front of a few banks in the city as a reaction to financial globalization in the world: “The capital does not create the poorness but invents it.

This system which is threatened not only by the energy crises but much more by the individual crises, encouraged and led by the connection of material luxury, mental disaster and abuse of the necessity to propagandize the importance of the economy, portrays that the society is being directed towards the discourse of general catastrophe. In this stadium of social reality in which hyper-reality is becoming the reality, the manipulation of truth is imposed as absolute focus. But if this kind of disarranging of the historical myth would release us from the ominous and false function of the things which are leading us to the loss of real essence? Where the new seduction begins – through the power of the money or through the power of the artwork?”
