Theory Inspirations (linked to Initial Ideas)

In terms of all of the initial ideas, I could take inspiration from theorist Karl Marx or 'Marxism' as I introduce the idea of dominant classes and ideology through how the global ideas held by the minority (those in power) and how their ideas based on theory are actually put into place locally to the masses and how they may have the completely wrong idea - i.e what the masses think to these ideas.

For example I could have clips from famous speeches, then read over local images contradicting these ideas. Then I could famous local speeches/written word by famous writers like Phillip Larkin, Andrew Marvell and Sir Tom Courtenay, read through vox pops. Representing the global speakers as the elite and the local thinkers/speakers as the masses.

This also introduces the theory of binary opposites - a theory by Levi Strauss. This theory represents the idea of having an antagonist and protagonist which could be shown in my film through having the 'global thinkers' as antagonist and protagonist shown through the realism of local images and through the realism of what the spoken word represents.
