• Bringing ideas to life

  I can't help but dream about a kind of criticism that would not try to judge, but bring an oeuvre, a book, a sentence, an idea to life; it would light fires, watch the grass grow, listen to the wind, and catch the sea-foam in the breeze and scatter it. It would multiply, not judgments, but signs of existence; it would summon them, drag them from their sleep. Perhaps it would invent them sometimes - all the better. All the better. Michel Foucault

  Blog Information Profile for cinbarnsley

This short film from students at the Vancouver Film School explores how people in Iran are using blogs as a safe form of expression on taboo topics such as politics, love and religion. Interestingly, according to this video, Iran is the “third largest country of bloggers” in the world.
