Philosopher Slavoj Žižek is our guide through landscapes of classic film, music, social media, archive and webcasts. Making unexpected twists and turns, he maps the utopian illusions of our times. Through absurd juxtapositions and startling insights, we are seduced into recognising our fate, in order to change it. “If aliens were to visit our earth and by chance ask me, ‘Could you explain to us what humanity is about?’” says Žižek, “I would not tell them, ‘go around and look,’ I would tell them, ‘look at these and these and these movies, and you will understand us.’” The Pervert’s Guide to Utopias concludes a two-decade collaboration between Sophie Fiennes and Slavoj Žižek, and completes a trilogy that began with The Pervert’s Guide to Cinema (2006) and The Pervert’s Guide to Ideology (2012).
