They would be picked out of the crowd and given a Ludovico treatment
from yet another dystopia. Eventually one of that cluster would get an
award for film editing/ cinematography. It would be used for ironic
effect, like Sasha doing foley for "Triumph of the Will", G. Gordon
Liddy's favorite movie:
"If any one component of man ought to be exercised, cultivated
and strengthened above all others, it is the will; and that must
have one objective - to win." He used to take his kids to see Leni
Reifenstahl's Nazi propaganda movie 'The Triumph of the Will.'
In a way, that's what Hector is trying to do with Frenesi, get her to
work on his own "Triumph of the Will."
