Videocracy

che Silvio c'è
Menomale.

"Italy is a rotten country," says one, who should know. Fabrizio Corona leads a paparazzi company, so to speak. It can be photographed celebrities and then sold them the pictures so they are not published. An approach that compares with the legendary figure Corona Robin Hood. Remove from the rich, but then it does not give the poor, but instead prefer to keep for themselves. A modern Robin Hood specify by Corona, which is anyway based on entirely different models. For example, in Scarface, but the resplendent portrait of Al Pacino on the wall. "A trace is negative, but people want to be like this" twitches Corona succinctly his shoulders as he smear his banana-shaped member with a skin cream.

Fabrizio Corona is a media enfant terrible in Italy, and sat for three years in prison for extortion 80 days. Then his popularity grew even more, fueled by self-promotion. A trace is negative, but people do it that way. Now he gets 10,000 euros if he was an hour show in a club. Then he sits on a sofa, his arm around the person beside him, looking bored in the digital cameras. "I talk a lot of shit" , he said afterwards on the way home. "The people pay no attention to what I say. The view just the star. " Corona testament to the power that may have pictures of a company. Videokratie we call this a phenomenon that was dedicated to Erik Gandini in one of his documentation.

Gandini, of Swedish and Italian descent characterized Italy in Videocracy as "country, ruled by television" . And in fact the television is used for 80 percent of Italians as the primary information medium. Which suggests again that whoever controls the television, also controls the people. Little wonder that einprasselt has always been a certain amount of criticism on Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi, who at the beginning ward off this week before a confidence vote in the Senate and House of Representatives had to. With three commercial TV stations, and the state television RAI under his thumb, Berlusconi controls about 90 percent of Italian television. And so 80 percent to 90 percent of his people.

a situation that led to six years ago that the organization "Freedom of the Press," Italy by a free press state as "partly free press" stepped back. In "Reporters Sans Frontières" Italy is in terms of press freedom led ranked 50th Thus, the Italians are still ahead of El Salvador; mounted behind Surinam, Trinidad and Tobago and Cape Verde. It devotes at least proud Berlusconi "50 percent of his time" to "put an internationally credible country" from Italy how Videocracy the Prime Minister cited in one place. Whereas the other 50 percent is probably, can be read about the situation in various tabloids, many of his parties and affairs, to contacts with the Mafia and other stories.

But "people love him," , Gandini white film report. Otherwise it can not even explain that the Prime Minister in is his third term. "Berlusconi is (...) a major leader" , told Italy's most influential TV Agent Lele Mara. It is true that the Prime Minister "not just Mussolini" in the Mara is otherwise a big fan - he even has a fascist video on his cell phone, which he proudly with the words "Pretty, is not it?" in the camera holds - but still a "great personality" . One can assume that Mara and Mr Berlusconi are, by you. Finally, the TV agent "the power to turn ordinary human TV stars' . And the TV star, it seems, is striving to become the most Italians.

"means more fame and more girls" , white Riccardo, a 26-year-old mechanic who dreams of being a mix of Ricky Martin's singing talent and Jean-Claude Van Damme's martial art, the screens (and thus the heart loins of the women to conquer). But Riccardo, who still lives at home and his mother spied him on his appointments, knows that it's hard for men to be on TV. Finally, there are preferably half-naked women, known as Showgirls or "veline. If you believe Riccardo, then do 80 percent are the Italian women velina to subsequently marry a footballer. The absurd thing is that this is indeed the natural process in the Italian TV landscape appears to be.

The veline are primarily used in the news satire show "Striscia la Notizia" are used, are early 20s - one blond, the other brunette - and serve as a scantily clad optical incentives, backed by a 30-second dance, the stracchetto . For the role of a velina in Italy there is a separate casting - for large crowds. For one who velina is or was, can make it far. Former showgirls as Alessia Merz, Giorgia Palmas or Ilary Blasi are romantically involved with footballers. Blasi with national hero Francesco Totti, Melissa Satta again with former international striker Christian Vieri. The have it the veline particularly pleased that his side garnished earlier Elisabetta Canalis, but in the meantime has become the latest bed bunny by George Clooney.

A league above plays the ex-showgirl Mara Carfagna who once worked for Berlusconi's media company Mediaset and employed since 2008 as Minister for Gender Equality is (believe it or not). If you did not it better, we might all this a brilliant sitcom from Hollywood's dream factory with. Looking at it in Videocracy , but it seems more like one big Fremdschämfaktor for an entire nation. A nation that was a Roman Empire in ancient times an unassailable world power, and which now, some fifteen hundred years later, women relegated to half-naked dolls in a society where men still makers are and showgirls are passed as trophies often second-class football player.

Gandini so amusing film's content may be, is scenically Videocracy from a journalistic point of view somewhat amateurish. So just look Mara in each of his scenes treudoof into the camera, as if waiting for a speaking order. A little more information on branched Berlusconischen media landscape and what exactly for this, but also to democracy and opinion formation - and therefore the actual job of the press - ie, one would then integrate already have (the theme "Press Freedom" speaks Gandini in the first credit in a short insertion, without naming the source, an). This Videocracy is from a journalistic point of view but succeeded only partially, as a satire on Italy's media landscape, he maintains, however, well.
