This Is a Recorded Message

This Is a Recorded Message 1973 Directed by Jean-Thomas Bédard Ceci est un Message Enregistré

This experimental animated short takes a critical look at consumerism in a material world. Thousands of cut-out ads are presented in increasingly fragmented, rapid succession. The film's disorienting and hectic pace seeks to interrogate the extent to which seductive advertising is a shockingly strong force in shaping our desires, needs, and lives in contemporary capitalism.
