Robinson in Ruins: Dual Format Edition (Blu ray + DVD) 
Keiller, Patrick
Patrick Keiller's latest essay-film in his Robinson series ('London' and 'Robinson in Space') combines ironic, witty denunciation of society's domination by markets with homage to the wonders of the biosphere.

Newly released from prison, mysterious would-be scholar Robinson has been haunting the Oxfordshire countryside with a cine camera. A few months later, film cans and a notebook are discovered in a derelict caravan: the results of his search for the origins of capitalist catastrophe in the English landscape. Researchers assemble the material as a film, narrated by their institution's co-founder (voiced Vanessa Redgrave).
