In several scenes, Ziering Kofman also reads excerpts from Derrida's work or otherwise describes aspects of his life. </p><p><i>Derrida</i> also focuses on Derrida's thesis that scholars tend to ignore important biographical information when discussing philosophers' lives.<sup id="cite_ref-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> In one scene, Derrida comments that he would be most interested in hearing about famous philosophers' sex lives because this topic is seldom addressed in their writings. The filmmakers respond to many of these criticisms by probing Derrida on various aspects of his own personal life, though he usually refuses to answer directly questions about himself. </p><p>The film also follows Derrida during a trip to <a href="/wiki/South_Africa" title="South Africa">South Africa</a> where he visits <a href="/wiki/Nelson_Mandela" title="Nelson Mandela">Nelson Mandela</a>'s former prison cell and discusses <a href="/wiki/Forgiveness" title="Forgiveness">forgiveness</a> with university students.

The film also includes metacinematic scenes in which Derrida analyzes previously recorded footage of himself. In one such scene, Derrida telescopically watches a video of himself analyzing footage of himself. </p><p>Nicholas Royle argues that the film's labyrinthine, <a href="/wiki/Ouroboros" title="Ouroboros">Ouroboros</a>-like structure reinforces several key Derridean tenets: </p> <dl><dd>"If Dick and Ziering Kofman follow Derrida, Derrida is also following them. <i>Derrida</i> is a film about following, about the compulsiveness and ghostliness of following, of following the camera, of following the story, of following a film. But <i>Derrida</i> is also a film about the impossibility of following, about the consequences and effects of Derrida's work vis-à-vis the 'story of a life', about the idea that Derrida cannot tell a story."<sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup></dd></dl> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Reception">Reception</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Derrida_(film)&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: Reception"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Film critics generally gave <i>Derrida</i> positive reviews; the film has an 82% "fresh" rating on Rotten Tomatoes.<sup id="cite_ref-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Kenneth Turan of the <i><a href="/wiki/Los_Angeles_Times" title="Los Angeles Times">Los Angeles Times</a></i> praised the film for its sophisticated style and said it was "the cinematic equivalent of a mind-expanding drug"<sup id="cite_ref-5" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> while <i><a href="/wiki/Film_Threat" title="Film Threat">Film Threat</a></i><span class="nowrap" style="padding-left:0.1em;">'s</span> Tim Merrill described it as "a priceless historical record."<sup id="cite_ref-6" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-6"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>6<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Other critics, like <i><a href="/wiki/The_Guardian" title="The Guardian">The Guardian</a></i><span class="nowrap" style="padding-left:0.1em;">'s</span> Peter Bradshaw, found the film whimsical and entertaining but lamented Derrida's evasive and mysterious demeanor.<sup id="cite_ref-7" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-7"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>7<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>Derrida received the Golden Gate Award at the 2002 <a href="/wiki/San_Francisco_Film_Festival" class="mw-redirect" title="San Francisco Film Festival">San Francisco Film Festival</a> and screened in competition for the Grand Jury Prize at the 2002 <a href="/wiki/Sundance_Film_Festival" title="Sundance Film Festival">Sundance Film Festival</a>. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Post-Release">Post-Release</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Derrida_(film)&action=edit&section=4" title="Edit section: Post-Release"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Derrida enjoyed the film and appeared at several promotional events to discuss the film and answer questions about the project.<sup id="cite_ref-impossibleconfidence_8-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-impossibleconfidence-8"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>8<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>Derrida died in October 2004. </p><p>In 2005, Routledge published a companion book, <i>Derrida</i>, which includes the film's <a href="/wiki/Screenplay" title="Screenplay">screenplay</a>, several essays on the film, and interviews with Derrida, Dick, and Ziering Kofman.
