as opposed to Sumayya whose nudity is meant to reveal her vanity + confidence

[Kripa @kripaatbrown]

the bride seems vulnerable in her nudity here #genderMECin

[Kripa @kripaatbrown]

there was a lot more female nudity than i was expecting, and this was used to achieve different aims #genderMECin

[Kripa @kripaatbrown]

the women seemed Greek chorus like in a sense #genderMECin

[Kripa @kripaatbrown]

the women singing seemed to move as one single organism with no individuality. Could we compare this to the presentation of soldiers in Divine Intervention? How does the presentation of Israeli soldiers differ here? #genderMECin

[Kripa @kripaatbrown]

singing and dancing make up a lot of the transitions in WEDDING IN GALILEE to add to the ostensible celebration #genderMECin

i thought the absurd would try and approach the political more abstractly..........but here we are? #genderMECin

[Kripa @kripaatbrown]

this cgi sequence was bonkers.....what was suleiman trying to convey here? #genderMEcin

[Kripa @kripaatbrown]

or here, the 'public' and the wider population act in sync - either like they're sheep or they've been so well-trained #genderMECin

[Kripa @kripaatbrown]

looking at the background actors / extras was so interesting. perhaps suleiman is projecting ideas of the 'public' and 'society' on to them because they're so passive #genderMECin

[Kripa @kripaatbrown]

coincidence that i started my day with these words too...? #genderMECin

[Kripa @kripaatbrown]

'Divine Intervention' is the film I've wanted to screenshot the most out of any of the films we've seen so far, so here we go! #genderMECin #absurdistan

[Kripa @kripaatbrown]

they don't know when and how they'll have to leave, but they know they're going to have to #genderMEcin

[Kripa @kripaatbrown]

i'm interested in the detached temporality of these makeshift communities - the dread of "where will i go after" seems to plague these characters #genderMEcin

[Kripa @kripaatbrown]

this seems like a naive question that i can't backtrack from now but this movie was so depressing that i can only think about SAVING THE CHILDREN #genderMEcin

[Kripa @kripaatbrown]

i'm thinking of spiritual questions about destiny now, which might not be a productive path to travel..but how can children of war break the cycle of misfortune and suffering #genderMEcin

[Kripa @kripaatbrown]

was riga destined from his conception to live a doomed life? #genderMEcin

[Kripa @kripaatbrown]

is it fair to say nothing robs childhood innocence more than war? #gendermecin

[Kripa @kripaatbrown]

i’m very interested in what makhmalbaf’s intentions are with the doctor character in particular
