THE REALITY: We perceive reality very differently. Let me therefore suggest three areas where reality is real, strong and direct for all of us. But also what a new translated book by Pier Paolo Pasolini says about the film's contact with reality.
BLACK CAMPAIGN: What was the biggest obstacle for Jeremy Corbyn when he came close to winning the election – and thus becoming the Prime Minister of Great Britain? A smear campaign and branding as 'Russia's henchman' or 'anti-Semite'?
