The Boy and the Beast (2015)
Melkweg, Friday, June 12 at 09:15 PM GMT+2
Together with Kaboom Animation Festival we bring the best anime to the big screen!
The Boy and the Beast is a successful coming-of-age story by anime giant Mamoru Hosoda that follows nine-year-old runaway Ren and gruff beast Kumatetsu fighting, arguing, and slowly discovering the true meanings of strength, anger, and loneliness. After which, Ren will have to choose between romance in modern-day Tokyo and a beast kingdom rather resembling feudal Japan.
Melkweg often hosts different types of programmes at the same time, such as concerts, club nights and films. Please note that there may occasionally be some noise pollution from other programmes during the screening.

AI runs school. A janitor runs the truth. One kid tries to pick a future. Funny. Warm. Slightly too real. https://inkican.com/emergency-reality-shelter-science-fiction-short-stories/career-day-scifi-short-story/ #scifi #author #AI #comingofage

Quasit's Daily Book Recommendations: "Vika's Avenger" (2013) by Lawrence Watt-Evans
•A refreshing science fantasy/mystery set in a dazzling alien city!•
On an alien planet 12,000 years in the future, a young man named Tulzik Ambroz travels in pursuit of the man who murdered his sister. The trail leads him to Ragbaan City, a place unimaginably old and inhabited by all sorts of beings—including half-insane holograms and AI programs. Layer upon layer of ancient civilizations make up the city, which is more than half ruins.
["Friend, in Ragbaan a dozen lifetimes is nothing. Didn’t you hear me mention the High Piers?”
“I did,” Urushak acknowledged. “I don’t know what they are.”
“They’re piers,” Sart explained. “Docks. Wharves. Except instead of on the bay, they’re on the hillside above most of the city.”
Urushak looked puzzled. “What, for airships?”
Sart shook his head. “No, no. At least, not originally. They were built thousands of years ago, in the Warm Years, when the sea was a hundred yards deeper than it is now. And they’re still standing. Some of them even have buildings on them, mostly temples."]
The variety of ancient and alien technologies in Ragbaan City is enormous; much of it is forgotten or misunderstood, and the line between tech and magic is effectively unknown. At the same time the city is busy and bustling with life; many of the residents live by searching the ruins for valuable items of technology, or "tek".
Coming from a small village, Tulzik's quest is a difficult one. Finding one man among a city of a million or more people is daunting, to say the least. But like most of Watt-Evans' protagonists, Tulzik is bright and has a good measure of common sense. Seeking out advice and help is one of the first thing he does.
That's where the story become as much a detective story as science-fantasy. The murderer Tulzik seeks is no ordinary man, and his motivation for killing Tulzik's sister leads to still more mysteries—and more adventures.
It's a damned good story! And sadly, it never received the success it deserved. It's not available for loan via the Internet Archive at all; even BookWyrm.social didn't have a listing for it (I've corrected that omission). Physical and ebook versions are available from Barnes & Noble and Amazon 🤮. You can also order them directly from the publisher, Misenchanted Press. If you have a good library, they may be able to get you a copy via interlibrary loan.
Happy reading! 🤓📖

Quasit's Daily Book Recommendations: "Kim" (1901) by Rudyard Kipling
This is one of the most precious books I know. It's one of the rare books which brings tears to my eyes every time I finish it. In other words, it's one of the three books which are closest to my heart.
Kipling has a bad reputation as a colonialist author, these days. In fact he's been despised in some circles for many decades now. But "Kim" is the novel which shows that even a colonialist can be a human being with a very human love for the culture of the colonized.
"Kim" is the story of a boy in 1890s India: Kimball O'Hara, the orphaned son of an Irish soldier and an English nanny. Growing up as a native in the city of Lahore, no one except he knows that he's not a native—and he doesn't care about it himself. He lives for fun and excitement, known to the people of the city as "The Little Friend of All the World".
"He sat, in defiance of municipal orders, astride the gun Zam Zammah on her brick platform opposite the old Ajaib-Gher—the Wonder House, as the natives call the Lahore Museum. Who hold Zam-Zammah, that 'fire-breathing dragon,' hold the Punjab, for the great green-bronze piece is always first of the conqueror’s loot."
Incidentally, Kipling himself grew up in Lahore. His father was the curator of the Wonder-House of Lahore, a museum. And Kipling included his father and the museum itself at the start of the novel.
Kim meets an ancient Tibetan lama who has left his monastery in the Himalayas to find a sacred river. The two become friends and travel together across India; the sheer richness of the many cultures that Kim experiences as he travels across India and up into the lower Himalayas with the lama is mind-blowing. Kipling paints the India of the time with such passionate depth of feeling that it serves as a character in itself. The variety of peoples and customs is simply amazing. Ever since I read this book I've wished I could travel to India in that time.
But "Kim" isn't just a travelogue. There's adventure, intrigue, espionage, humor, and one of the most perfect coming-of-age stories ever written. Kim is drawn into the "Great Game" of spying between the European powers, and is educated as an agent by masters of the craft.
What can I say? It's a deeply moving and beautiful book. And you can download it for free in all the major ebook formats from Standard Ebooks.
https://standardebooks.org/ebooks/rudyard-kipling/kim
I've often thought that "Kim" is proof that a book doesn't have to be science fiction or fantasy to be breathtakingly exotic and magical, while retaining a core of incredibly touching humanity.
Happy reading! 🤓📖

Just finished reading this and it somehow completely charmed me. It's a mix of #CozyCrime and #ComingOfAge, from the POV of a 12-year old girl living in a small West Yorkshire town at the end of the 1970s when the Yorkshire Ripper was being hunted.
As a #Sheffield lad born the same year as the heroine, the use of #Yorkshire dialect and mannerisms and the authentic world-building brought back vivid childhood memories. A bittersweet story with much sadness but also courage and grit.

„We Are Lady Parts“ (Serie, 2021-2024)Ich liebe sie alle. Keine weniger als die andere. Für das, was sie sind und für das, was sie tun! Hier hat das @ZDF einmal mehr in den britischen Serienkatalog gegriffen und viel mehr als eine Serienperle an Land gezogen. Das hier ist ein gesellschaftspolitisches Statement, das im Gewand einer Punkband-Sitcom zugleich emanzipatorisch und subversiv agiert. Gut so! ❤️ (ZDF, Wh.)

Rob Reiner – „Stand By Me“ (1986)Wenn man(n) die Lebensmitte schon eine Weile hinter sich hat, dann bekommen nicht nur Erinnerungen an Filme, sondern auch an die eigene Kindheit und Jugend jedes Jahr einen neuen Stellenwert. Nach dem plötzlichen Tod von Rob Reiner und seiner Frau – und der dahinter stehenden Familientragödie vor nur ein paar Tagen -, fällt es mir allerdings tatsächlich schwer, diesen Film nicht auch als ein frühes Vermächtnis seines Regisseurs zu sehen. Auch, weil ich damals, als ich ihn zuerst sehen durfte, das meiste meines eigenen Lebens noch vor mir hatte. (ZDFneo, Wh.)
