Speak of the Devil! On satanic popular culture - discussion after the screening of "Hail Satan!" by Penny Lane

Language: Polish

How is popular culture shaping the image of satanism? Can satanism be seen as its product? And finally: how do we discuss the figure of Satan and its worship given the current mood of society? We would like to have a heated debate after the screening, one that will excite all: movie maniacs, mockers, activists, believers and non-believers.

Our guests:

Dr. Mateusz Dąsal: PhD in humanities with major in religion. Specialises in anthropology of religion, ritual studies and performance studies. For several years now he has also investigated the relations between medicine and religion.

Karolina Kostyra: Film expert, PhD student of cultural studies, specialises in horror and cinema for the youth. Employee of Silesian University.
