Film Socialism (2010) is a cinematic journey structured into three distinct movements. The first, titled "Such Things," unfolds on a Mediterranean cruise, capturing a myriad of conversations in various languages among holidaying passengers. The second movement, "Our Europe," takes place at night, where a sister and her younger brother confront their parents in a court-like setting, demanding explanations on the principles of Liberty, Equality, and Fraternity. The final movement, "Our Humanities," explores six sites of real or mythical significance: Egypt, Palestine, Odessa, Hellas, Naples, and Barcelona. This film marks Godard's first feature shot entirely in video, leveraging the digital medium's juxtapositions, contrasts, and saturation to reflect a chaotic and hurried era. The film is presented as a sonata, with the first movement being swift and set on a Mediterranean cruise with various stops, the second being slower and focused on a family and a petrol station in Southern France, and the third being a faster, shorter journey through notable Mediterranean and Black Sea locations. The film's approach is to preserve a model of civilization through its fragments or to revel in the scene of its disintegration.
