The Birds
Bodega Bay is an idyllic little town on the Californian coast. This is where millionaire's daughter Melanie ends up, who initially runs into a handsome lawyer in a pet shop - while buying ‘love birds’ of all things. The joy of reunion is short-lived, because for inexplicable reasons a menacingly growing number of birds attack the people in the town ... Slavoj Žižek: ‘The dead end that THE BIRDS is about is that of the modern American family. The birds are like the plague in Oedipus' Thebes: The incarnation of a deep disturbance in family relationships - the father is absent, the paternal function suspended. This vacuum is filled by the irrational maternal superego, which tyrannically and maliciously prevents any sexual relationship.’
(Florian Widegger)
