Boyhood friends from Midland, Texas are
arrested on terrorism charges at the 2008 Republican National Convention. Better
This World follows the journey of David McKay (22) and Bradley Crowder (23) from
political neophytes to accused domestic terrorists with a particular focus on
the relationship they develop with a radical activist mentor in the six months
leading up to the convention. A dramatic story of idealism, loyalty, crime and
betrayal, BETTER THIS WORLD goes to the heart of the War on Terror and its
impact on civil liberties and political dissent in post-9/11 America.

He had imagined the court room as a big place. It wasn’t. It was about the size of his living room, with an elevation at one end, with a dais on it. The judges and the attorneys sat there. Below it was an old wooden rail, worn out in some places. That was his place. There was another seat for his lawyer. At the back, about 20 or 30 chairs were stowed out for the non-existent crowd.
Celebrating its 10th anniversary this year, Pera Museum invites artist Benoît Hamet to reinterpret key pieces from its collections, casting a humourous eye over ‘historical’ events, both imagined and factual.
A firm believer in the idea that a collection needs to be upheld at least by four generations and comparing this continuity to a relay race, Nahit Kabakcı began creating the Huma Kabakcı Collection from the 1980s onwards. Today, the collection can be considered one of the most important and outstanding examples among the rare, consciously created, and long-lasting ones of its kind in Turkey.
