Cork - Event Notice
Thursday January 01 1970

Film screening: Starsuckers, 8pm, Wednesday 19th January

category cork | arts and media | event notice author Sunday January 16, 2011 11:14author by Eric - WSMauthor email solidaritybooks at gmail dot comauthor address Solidarity Books, 43 Douglas Street, Opposite Fionn Barras, Cork City Report this post to the editors

Film screening: Starsuckers, 8pm, Wednesday 19th January

Starsuckers is a feature documentary about the celebrity obsessed media, that uncovers the real reasons behind our addiction to fame and blows the lid on the corporations and individuals who profit from it. Made completely independently over 2 years in secret, the film journeys through the dark underbelly of the modern media.

Using a combination of never before seen footage, undercover reporting, stunts and animation, the film reveals the toxic effect the media is having on us all and especially our children. It shows how truth has become a distant memory in the modern news and climaxes with a shocking and startling revelation of just how bad things can get when we let entertainment reach out into politics and charity.

The first rule of working in the media is - do not criticise the media. A film so controversial it will never be shown uncut on TV, and will pull the rug underneath a string of untouchables.

Chris Atkins, UK, English, 2009,
Runtime: 103 min.

Solidarity Books, 43 Douglas Street, Opposite Fionn Barras, Cork City
