HOPE
Near the Canal Saint-Martin, a young man sits reading alone on a bench, absorbed in a few pages while the wall behind him overflows with slogans, graffiti and political anger. Above him, drawn wings seem almost to unfurl behind his back. Hope captures this fragile contrast: amid the noise of the world, remaining capable of believing, reading and imagining.
Soundtrack
LORDE
Everybody Wants to Rule the World from the film HUNGER GAMES CATCHING FIRE
With Everybody Wants to Rule the World, Lorde darkens the Tears for Fears classic until it becomes a prophecy. Her voice, the percussion and the ominous soundscapes echo the slogans on the wall. The music turns reading into an act of resistance in the face of a world obsessed with power.
