    The End of Time A film by Peter Mettler 114 min, English, Digital (DCP, Blu-ray), Canada, 2012, DoCumentary FIRST RUN FEATURES The Film Center Building 630 Ninth Ave. #1213 New York, NY 10036 (212) 243-0600 / Fax (212) 989-7649 Website: www.firstrunfeatures.com Email: [email protected] www.firstrunfeatures.Com/endoftime Synopsis "Recalling the work of Terrence Malick, Werner Herzog and the late Chris Marker" (Hollywood Reporter), Peter Mettler’s enthralling new film combines elements of documentary, essay, and experimental cinema to create a tour de force that challenges our conception of time — and perhaps the very fabric of our existence. With stunning cinematography and a knack for capturing astonishing moments, The End of Time travels the planet — from the CERN particle accelerator outside Geneva to the lava flows of Hawaii; from a disintegrating Detroit where Henry Ford Built his first factory to the tree where Buddha was enlightened. Both mind-expanding and eerily familiar, Mettler's provocative film explores the links between renewal and destruction, between primordial mysticism and the furthest reaches of modern science, giving the viewer a transcendent cinematic experience. Praise for The End of Time "Recalling the work of Terrence Malick, Werner Herzog and the late Chris Marker...THE END OF TIME Becomes immersive and hypnotic...a ravishingly Beautiful experience." – Stephen Dalton, The Hollywood Reporter "A work of vision...A gloBe-trotting cine-essay about time...poetic and lovely." – Adam Nayman, POV "Mettler's trippy

Support-the-troops rhetoric has two major functions: de*ection and dissociation. De*ection involves discursive trends in play since Vietnam that have rede+ned war as a +ght to save our own soldiers—especially the captive soldier—rather than as a struggle for policy goals external to the military. As such, this discourse directs civic attention away from the question of whether the particular war policy is just. ) e essay explicates these trends through an examination of the POW/MIA, war +lm, and the symbol of the yellow ribbon. ) e second trope, dissociation, quarantines the citizen from questions of military action by manufacturing distance between citizen and soldier. Dissociation o, en goes further to de+ne civic deliberation and dissent as an attack on the soldier body and thus an ultimate immoral act. ) is essay explores this trope through executive rhetoric, an analysis of the particular phrase “support the troops,” metaphor for war, and John Kerry’s run for the presidency in -../. Both de*ection and dissociation work to discipline and mute public deliberation in matters of war. ) e essay concludes by considering strategies for reopening spaces for democratic deliberation.
