Honoris Causa

About This Movie

Honoris Causa captures a moment in time with Jacques Rancière at the University of Valparaíso, blending documentary with an essay format. It’s less about traditional narrative and more about weaving together the philosophical and the political, creating a unique atmosphere. The pacing is contemplative, allowing you to sit with Rancière's thoughts as they're contrasted against the vibrant backdrop of the city. There's a certain rawness to the visuals, almost an intimacy that draws you in. As the images unfold, it's as if Valparaíso becomes a living participant in the discourse, shaping the narrative just as much as Rancière's words do. It's a fascinating exploration of how philosophy intersects with public space, leaving you pondering long after it ends.
