"With a resolution that binds the human to the animal, the autonomous to the bestial, Whiteout Conditions renders a synthesis of propitiation and cruelty that is as palpable as it is blinding." - @_NathanElias, @EntropyMag

Abbas Kiarostami would have turned 80 today.
“His films are somehow both deceptively simple and highly philosophical, playful and despairing at the same time, drawing profundity from their multitude of contradictions.”

I FULLY support the initiative to blackout the Bestseller list. Buy some books by your favorite Black author this week. Or find a new one. Show them a music chart ain’t the only one we can seize. #BlackoutBestsellerList
@rusdaboss Yes - We're on Vanderbilt between St. Marks & Prospect Place - although we're not doing pick-ups yet - we're just shipping - we'll be reopening (pending approval) next month.
