In Allegories of the End of Capitalism,Milo Sweedler deconstructs the events of films Melancholia; Cosmopolis; Suffragette; Django Unchained; Elysium and Snowpiercer,the socio-political contexts they arise from and enter into,and their impact on contemporary culture and life. He examines how filmmakers from six different countries,across four continents,give narrative and audio-visual form to the frustration and anger that burst into public view in 2011,the ongoing class war between the super-rich and the rest of the world's population,and the insurrection that it yet to come.
