And [insert your name here]


Synopsis

Badiou explores the financial crisis, the end of capitalism, as though it were a feature film of which we are the stars. Hadid stars as the lead in Meades' piece, as he pushes to understand her design process, but like the build up of a great film anti-climax, Hadid leaves us in suspense never giving much away. 

Odeon. Fanatical about film. 
The News. Fanatical about disaster.
Bankers. Fanatical about money.
Politicians. Fanatical about power.
Architects. Fanatical about building. 
All of the above: Fanatical about jargon.
