Film Socialisme

Film is composed of three movements. The first movement, Des choses comme ça ("Such things") is set on a cruise ship, featuring multi-lingual conversations among a medley collection of passengers. Characters include an aging war criminal, a former United Nations official and a Russian detective. The second movement, Notre Europe ("Our Europe"), involves a pair of children, a girl and her younger brother, summoning their parents to appear before the "tribunal of their childhood", demanding serious answers on the themes of liberty, equality, and freedom. The final movement, Nos humanités ("Our humanities") visits six legendary sites: Egypt, Palestine, Odessa, Hellas, Naples, and Barcelona. (jakelijan virallinen teksti)
