Every month on Patreon there is a movie discussion group called Exposure. Exposure is a monthly film club where we use movies as a lens through which we can look at some important but difficult concepts from philosophy, theology and psychoanalysis.

This month Peter Rollins talks about the movie Pig, directed by Michael Sarnoski and staring Nicolas Cage, through the lens of Levi-Strauss' famous work on myth.
