Windward Women's History Month: DreamWorlds 3 Video

March 21, 12:30pm - 2:00pm
Windward Campus, Hale Akoakoa 105

DreamWorlds 3: Desire, Sex, and Power in Music Video.

From the film's jacket cover: Dreamworlds 3 (2006), the highly anticipated update of Sut Jhally's groundbreaking Dreamworlds 2 (1995), examines the stories contemporary music videos tell about girls and women, and encourages viewers to consider how these narratives shape individual and cultural attitudes about sexuality.

Illustrated with hundreds of up-to-date images, Dreamworlds 3 offers a unique and powerful tool for understanding both the continuing influence of music videos and how pop culture more generally filters the identities of young men and women through a dangerously narrow set of myths about sexuality and gender. In doing so, it inspires viewers to reflect critically on images that they might otherwise take for granted.

Viewing of the film with panel/audience discussion afterwards
