ŽIŽEK! trails the thinker as he crisscrosses the globe, racing from New York City lecture halls, through the streets of Buenos Aires, and even stopping at home in Ljubljana, Slovenia. All the while Žižek obsessively reveals the invisible workings of ideology through his unique blend of Lacanian psychoanalysis, Marxism, and critique of pop culture.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

Director Astra Taylor constructs the portrait by immersing us in the whirlwind of Žižek's thought, not through conventional interviews. She relies on the energy of his lectures and explores the constant travel as a metaphor for a restless mind, building a compelling narrative from chaos and genius.

Those who tire of dry academic discourse will find a thrilling, passionate performance of philosophy. What lingers after is the infectious energy of a mind dissecting the world with radical clarity. — MovieFinder Editorial
