Contracultura e maio de 68
Ao mencionarmos o Maio de 68, devemos ter em mente que há o seu caráter datado, como sua própria denominação nos apresenta, mas também um caráter não datado, que se/nos atravessa como acontecimento, e carregado se simbologias.
Esta lista não é uma lista sobre o ano de 1968, e sim, sobre o acontecimento de Maio de 68. Entendemos que é um acontecimento muito difuso, se espalhando de uma forma incompreensível (ao menos para mim) em várias regiões distantes do mundo em um momento contemporâneo.
Dsse espírito do tempo resultariam ainda no massacre de estudantes no México, que ficou conhecido como o Massacre de Tlatelolco. Assim como a Primavera de Praga e na "passeata dos 100 mil" no Rio de Janeiro, contra a ditadura militar.
Mas é também um acontecimento concentrado. Seja nas pixações de muro com slogans Situacionistas; nas reinvidicações estudantis para extinção da separação sexual dos dormitórios; ou no enfrentamento com a polícia nas ruas de Paris.
O obejtivo da lista é focar em alguns filmes e documentários que tratam desse modo mais específico de focar o Maio de 68.
