Dear New York friends! Metrograph is screening the 35mm print of Examined Life to show one time, and one time only, in NYC this month. Nov 26th! Astra Taylor will be there to introduce it. I’m so thankful Astra brought me on board to score this film! (My first feature!!)
About the film:
An invigorating ode to the life of the mind, Taylor’s proudly cerebral documentary celebration of good talk and sound reasoning brings together filmed meetings with some of the 21st century’s most esteemed public intellectuals—Peter Singer, Judith Butler, Cornel West, and others—as they provide guided tours of spaces that hold particular import in their thinking, with Slavoj Žižek’s address from atop a garbage dump just one of several highlights.
