Told from the participants\u2019 perspectives, the film looks over the precipice at an emergent new art form where real world and fictional narratives collide, creating unforeseen and often unsettling consequences. Fusing elements of counter-culture, new religious movements and street art, THE INSTITUTE invites viewers down the rabbit hole into a secret underground world teeming just beneath the surface of everyday life.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/cinemajaw.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/5.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1339\" src=\"http:\/\/cinemajaw.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/5-300x168.png\" alt=\"5\" width=\"300\" height=\"168\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cinemajaw.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/5-300x168.png 300w, https:\/\/cinemajaw.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/5-1024x575.png 1024w, https:\/\/cinemajaw.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/5.png 1100w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>But just how much of this surreal documentary is real, and how much of it s part of the game and culture that surrounds it called nonchalance?<\/p>\n<p>Take a listen and find out how much light Spencer sheds, and how many shadows he casts.<\/p>\n<div class=\"powerpress_player\" id=\"powerpress_player_385\"><audio class=\"wp-audio-shortcode\" id=\"audio-1338-1\" preload=\"none\" style=\"width: 100%;\" controls=\"controls\"><source type=\"audio\/mpeg\" src=\"http:\/\/dts.podtrac.com\/redirect.mp3\/media.blubrry.com\/cinemajaw\/www.cinemajaw.com\/episodes\/CinemaJaw198.mp3?_=1\" \/><a href=\"http:\/\/dts.podtrac.com\/redirect.mp3\/media.blubrry.com\/cinemajaw\/www.cinemajaw.com\/episodes\/CinemaJaw198.mp3\">http:\/\/dts.podtrac.com\/redirect.mp3\/media.blubrry.com\/cinemajaw\/www.cinemajaw.com\/episodes\/CinemaJaw198.mp3<\/a><\/audio><\/div><p class=\"powerpress_links powerpress_links_mp3\" style=\"margin-bottom: 1px !important;\">Podcast: <a href=\"http:\/\/dts.podtrac.com\/redirect.mp3\/media.blubrry.com\/cinemajaw\/www.cinemajaw.com\/episodes\/CinemaJaw198.mp3\" class=\"powerpress_link_pinw\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Play in new window\" onclick=\"return powerpress_pinw('https:\/\/cinemajaw.com\/wordpress\/?powerpress_pinw=1338-podcast');\" rel=\"nofollow\">Play in new window<\/a> | <a href=\"http:\/\/dts.podtrac.com\/redirect.mp3\/media.blubrry.com\/cinemajaw\/www.cinemajaw.com\/episodes\/CinemaJaw198.mp3\" class=\"powerpress_link_d\" title=\"Download\" rel=\"nofollow\" download=\"CinemaJaw198.mp3\">Download<\/a><\/p><p class=\"powerpress_links powerpress_subscribe_links\">Subscribe: <a href=\"https:\/\/cinemajaw.com\/wordpress\/feed\/podcast\/\" class=\"powerpress_link_subscribe powerpress_link_subscribe_rss\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Subscribe via RSS\" rel=\"nofollow\">RSS<\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Each month on CinemaJaw we choose a film that is streaming, or otherwise easily accessible and make it our Movie Club Pick of the Month.
