A Writer in the Nuclear Age: A Conversation with Margaret Laurence --
Description du film [en anglais] :
« In this short film, internationally acclaimed author Margaret Laurence passionately addresses several issues related to peace: the social responsibility of the writer; language usage and reality; jargon and 'newspeak'; imagination, meaning and understanding; the nuclear threat; world leadership; the role of empathy in communication; the distinctions between fiction and didactic writing; and the power of 'ordinary' people to influence events. The film's scope makes this an excellent discussion starter in diverse subject areas. »
