  1. Hey #Movies #Cinema

    I feel like watching some #Iranian movies. I remember watching some very good stuff in the early aughts, that (if I recall correctly) was coming mainly out of the Kurdistan region of the country. Don't quote me.

    Then near the end of the aughts a thing happened that made me somewhat lose interest in "cinema" as a pastime. I don't wanna get too much into it, I can't pin it all on Gaspar Noe but he's a central culprit.

    But lately I've gotten back to enjoying it some, now and then. I don't necessarily just trust it, cause a Game Of Thrones will not lead with its moral nihilism in the promos, and people still wrapped in their desensitization cloaks will not understand my objections to watching these acts, and likely consider any strong reactions to them as "drama" or some such.

    It's not even the violence, it's the violence in its context. I think extreme violence can be entirely non-gratuitous, but an artist has to earn the right to use it, much like they won't let a new construction hire run the big tractor on his first day.

    It's okay if the recommendations are violent, violence is a daily character in that region these days. As long as the art is not morally nihilistic. Which is more of a Western thing, I'd say, in terms of video entertainment.

    I'm rambling now, cause I am here to get some movie recommendations for stuff that's come out of #Iran (surrounding region also acceptable, particularly if there's a #Kurd or especially #Parsi connection) in the last 10-15 years.

    Hit me, Fedi!

    (I'm gonna try to show up for #Monsterdon tonight too. I had fun the last time I remembered. Granted, it was only cause there were Daleks, but it was fun.)

  8. Mounting protests across Australia defend Rojava revolution

    Many Kurds in Australia have family members who have been disappeared or displaced in the fighting. The protests have united Kurds from all the parts of Kurdistan, which was divided by Western colonial powers between Turkey, Iran, Iran and Syria after World War I.

    “We call on the government and all Australians to show solidarity with Rojava and condemn these attacks”, Baran Sogut, a spokesperson for the Federation of Democratic Kurdish Society (Australia), said at a protest held outside the Parliament House in Canberra on January 17.

    Greetings to everyone reading this. I currently have a term paper, a thesis, and a couple of other assignments I need to pass. I don't have much time for drawing; I need to catch up on my studies to finish.

  22. Uppgifter: UD-diplomat och kurdisk aktivist offrades i byte för Medin
    När Joakim Medin plötsligt släpptes från det turkiska högsäkerhetsfängelset, skedde det bara dagar efter att Säpo gripit en svensk UD-diplomat och en kurdisk representant. En källa uppger till #Blankspot att frigivningen var en del i en informell bytesaffär mellan #Sverige och #Turkiet – där turkisk underrättelsetjänst utlovades åtgärder mot personer i Sverige.
