[Tenerife]Ciclo de cine contra la videovigilancia y el control social

"La innovación tecnológica viene a complementar y multiplicar, no a sustituir, los sanguinarios modelos de la represión clásica”

CICLO DE CINE CONTRA LA VIDEOVIGILANCIA Y EL CONTROL SOCIAL

-Martes 20 de abril: "BRAZIL"

Sinopsis: Brazil es una visión surrealista sobre un futuro perfecto en el cual impera la tecnología. Todo el mundo está controlado por una agencia gubernamental secreta que prohíbe que el amor interfiera con la eficacia.
Esta fantasía poco convencional, mezcla un humor cruel con un análisis mordaz sobre una inolvidable visión de un mañana soberbiamente sórdido.
Director: Terry William. Año:1985. Duración: 124 min. País: USA

- Miércoles 21 de abril: "EL SHOW DE TRUMAN"
Sinopsis: Truman Burbank, un ciudadano modelo, tiene la sensación de que le vigilan y no se equivoca. Cada segundo de día, desde el momento en que nació, ha sido el protagonista inadvertido de la telenovela más larga de la historia sin que él lo supiera.
Director: Peter Weir. Año:1998. Duración: 99 min. País: USA

-Jueves 22 de abril: "FAHRENHEIT 451"
Sinopsis: Adaptación de la novela de Ray Bradbury, sobre la civilización en el futuro en donde todo el material impreso está prohibido. Un brutal recordatorio de las implicaciones de perder nuestra individualidad y nuestra libertad. Fahrenheit 451 es la temperatura a la cual el papel arde. Guy Montag es un bombero del Departamento de Incendios cuyo trabajo consiste en quemar libros prohibidos por el Gobierno.
Director: François Truffaut. Duración: 113 min. Año: 1966 País: Francia.

-Viernes 23 de abril: "1984"
Sinopsis: Basada en el clásico de George Orwell, escrito en 1948. En 1984 el mundo esta dominado por gobiernos absolutistas que prohíben cualquier manifestación de placer. Winston, un trabajador del Ministerio de la Verdad, está escribiendo un diario que puede ser motivo de detención, tortura y ``vaporización´´. Su vida se complica cuando conoce a Julia, con la que inicia una relación clandestina, que mantienen fuera del alcance de las cámaras que vigilan a la población, para aniquilar cualquier asomo de rebelión.
Director: Michael Radford. Duración: 105 min. Año:1984. País: UK

Todas las proyecciones tendrán lugar en el local sociocultural TAMONANTE (c/Dr. Zamenhof nº7, La Laguna), a partir de las 20:00 horas.

Jubilee Cafe

***Actual time is 7:15-8:15am***

Jubilee Café is an ecumenical campus and community outreach program sponsored by Canterbury House, the Episcopal Campus Ministry of the University of Kansas. It is committed to serving our homeless and in-need neighbors with dignity and respect. Our primary goals are to enhance self-esteem and promote wellness among our guests, our volunteers, and ourselves. Participation in, or affiliation with, either Canterbury House or any other sponsoring organization is not a prerequisite for volunteering at the Jubilee Café.



he Jubilee Café provides our homeless and in-need neighbors in the Lawrence area a generous and healthy breakfast on Tuesday and Friday mornings in a setting that allows our volunteers to interact with each person on an individual basis. Jubilee Café is a fully licensed restaurant that has been operating since 1994. We believe that by treating our visitors as guests and our volunteers as vital, we will affirm individual humanity and enhance self-esteem. The simple act of choosing an item from a menu allows a person to exercise a measure of control in one basic area of his or her life, which can cross over into other areas as well. And the act of serving another person in need gives us the direct experience of "loving our neighbor as ourselves."


pen on Tuesday and Friday mornings, the Café serves its guests from 7:00 am to 8:00 am.

Terror and the Patriot Act: The Congressional Response

The Santa Cruz Chapter of the ACLU continues its series of discussions on Civil Liberties & Authoritarian Regimes:
The Politics of Fear

Friday, April 23, 2004

Panel discussion on Terror and the Patriot Act: The Congressional Response

featuring Congressman Sam Farr, Santa Cruz City Council member Mike Rotkin, and a civil liberties expert from ACLU-Northern California New legislation before the House could effect civil liberties for years to come, such as the CLEAR Act, which would require our overburdened local and state law enforcement officers to enforce federal immigration laws at new levels. But there's also good news: the bi-partisan Security and Freedom Ensured (SAFE) Act, would represent a significant first step toward rolling back some of the PATRIOT Act's worse excesses.

Come hear Rep. Farr and others discuss up-to-the-minute civil liberties developments taking place in the halls of Congress.

Dr. Strangelove
