1968: 40 Years Later
A Film Series

Can Dialectics Break Bricks? (1973, 90 min. French with English subtitles) is a Situationist film by director René Viénet which uses an older martial arts film ("The Crush" from Doo Kwang Gee) for its visuals. This film was then dubbed over by the filmmakers in a detournement. The idea was to adapt a bourgeois film into a radical critique of cultural hegemony.
