Shock Jock
With the news that Naomi Klein is coming to Scotland its time for another look at the Shock Doctrine film, by Klein and Alfonso Cuarón. "A collective trauma, a war, a coup, a natural disaster, a terrorist attack puts us all into a collective state of shock...."
"When I finished The Shock Doctrine, I sent it to Alfonso Cuarón because I adore his films and felt that the future he created for Children of Men was very close to the present I was seeing in disaster zones. I was hoping he would send me a quote for the book jacket and instead he pulled together this amazing team of artists -- including Jonás Cuarón who directed and edited -- to make The Shock Doctrine short film. It was one of those blessed projects where everything felt fated." - Naomi Klein
