If cinema is a reflection of its time, great artists will reach the rotten core. “Fidelio,” a four-film series presented by The Film Stage and Chapo Trap House‘s Movie Mindset that hits Roxy Cinema this August, highlights the 1%’s malevolent influence, deep-state connections, and sexual corruption vis-à-vis the major filmmakers of our time—a series that leaves one both fantastically entertained and with a rattled view of our world.
Each film, in ways either direct or roundabout, is a thriller; all are concerned with the catastrophe that emerges from civilians coming into contact with great power; all reflect real-life figures, or at least force acknowledgement of what we imagine is happening behind closed doors. The Film Stage considers its fortune teaming with our movie-loving and ferociously political friends at Movie Mindset. We look forward to seeing you at the Roxy.
