In the 2004 Richard Linklater film, Before Sunset, Ethan Hawke and Julie Delpy are sitting at a café, as their characters Jesse and Celine. Reunited after spending a night together nine years earlier. As is their M.O. they are moving through a range of topics quite naturally some deeper than others, but all concerned with the human experience. At one point, Celine tells Jesse about her time in Warsaw, when it was a Communist country. She talks about being in a place where she didn’t understand what she saw on television, was free of advertising and was able to switch off. She explains it to Jesse like this, ‘My brain was at rest, free from the consuming frenzy.’
