I think Digger is something you guys would like.

I’m not really sure how to flair this and for the most part it’s still very much made from a liberal perspective but it’s self aware and I think that means something.

Not only is it super bleak but the messaging is like the closest thing to Maoist that Hollywood can probably get. Without giving too much away, because the spoilers would probably ruin the viewing experience, I think it says a lot about controlled opposition and the lack of separation in the first world between the masses and the bourgeoisie. I loved it.

I highly recommend checking it out. I need some comrades to weigh in here.

Israel's Culture Minister has threatened to revoke the citizenship of the creators of a documentary about Gaza.

Israeli Culture Minister Miki Zohar intends to strip two award-winning directors of a documentary about Gaza, titled "NAZA," of their Israeli citizenship. On Sunday, Zohar announced via the online platform X that he had contacted the Ministry of the Interior to consider this measure against filmmaker Rachel Szor and her colleague Yuval Abraham, citing a "lack of loyalty to the state and collaboration with the enemy."

On Monday, Zohar stated that he had called on Israeli authorities to launch an investigation to identify the anonymous military sources featured in the documentary.

The film "NAZA" won the Special Jury Prize at the Venice Film Festival on Saturday. The documentary received a 25-minute standing ovation at its Venice premiere and garnered high praise from critics.

In "NAZA," 24 Israeli military officials and intelligence officers state anonymously that the Israeli army knowingly accepted civilian casualties in the Gaza.

According to the filmmakers, the title refers to an acronym used by the military to estimate such "collateral damage" for every attack. One of the interviewees in the film states that an attack on a single target killed 500 people in the surrounding area.

Nostalgia (1983)

Russian poet Andrei Gorchakov journeys through Italy with his interpreter Eugenia to research the life of an 18th-century Russian composer who once lived abroad. Isolated and consumed by an unrelenting longing for his homeland, Andrei becomes drawn to Domenico, a radical mystic obsessed with spiritual redemption. Through austere imagery and extended temporal rhythms, Tarkovsky examines exile, memory, and the profound melancholy of being unable to belong fully to either place or language.
