description In this paper, the author will offer a new and specofoc reading of the contemporary media society, the society as it is understood by some of the most prominent thinkers of the media-economy like Jonathan Beller and Jinathan Crary, but here with a foundatiin in late situationist thought of the first french philosopher of the media, Guy Debord. Film as the media and the symptom of the contemporary society takes an essential place in the thought of Guy Debord, that of the mixture of both theory and practice in the thorough deconstruction of the conditions of production of the theory and practice as a socially engaged and progressive construct. No film is, therefore, more difficult than its era. It is exactly the Debords film Refutation of All the Judgments, Pro or Con, Thus Far Rendered on the Film “The Society of the Spectacle” a notible work and a description of the time in close relationship with the Age of the World Image, written by Martin Heidegger with the more or less same didactic intent.
