Amnesia is a 2015 Swiss-French drama film directed by Barbet Schroeder. It has been selected to screen in the Special Screenings section at the 2015 Cannes Film Festival.
Jo is a twenty-five-year-old music composer. He has come over from Berlin and wants to be part of the nascent electronic music revolution, ideally by getting a job first as a DJ in the new nightclub on the island, Amnesia. Martha has been living alone in her house facing the sea for forty years. One night Jo knocks on her door. Her solitude intrigues him. They become friends even as the mysteries around her accumulate: that cello in the corner she refuses to play, the German language she refuses to speak... Slowly, they enter into a relationship that will challenge and change both of them.
"Amnesia" is an 8-page comic by Al Columbia. It was published in the twentieth issue (September/October 1997) of Zero Zero.
Columbia's recurring character Seymour Sunshine is shown standing in the middle of a street, looking uncertain and ill at ease. The omniscient narrator introduces him as a victim of amnesia, and comments on his plight as he wanders confusedly through a landscape strewn with entrails and the carcasses of bizarre creatures. Stepping into an unfamiliar house, he responds hesitantly to a knock at the door, which proves to be his companion Knishkebibble the Monkey-Boy. Though he does not recognize him, Seymour follows Knishkebibble on a long overland journey to a fog-shrouded city. They find it inhabited by untold numbers of identical, ghoulish men in suits with wrinkled, unsmiling faces. At first the men ignore Seymour and Knishkebibble, but when the city's clock tower strikes on the hour their collective facial expression changes to a malevolent grin and they begin to pursue the pair, who run away in fright.

We got the message
I heard it on the airwaves
The politicians
Are now DJ's
The broadcast was spreading
Station to station
Like an infection
Across the nation
Well you know you can't stop it
When they start to play
You gotta get out the way
The politics of dancing
The politics of ooo feeling good
The politics of moving
Is this message understood
We're under the pressure
Yes we're counting on you
That what you say
Is what you do
It's in the papers
It's on your t.v. news
The application
It's just a point of view
Well you know you can't stop it
When they start to play
You gotta get out the way
The politics of dancing
The politics of ooo feeling good
The politics of moving
Is this message understood
The politics of dancing
The politics of ooo feeling good
The politics of moving
