Damit hatte ich nicht gerechnet… #Wissenschaft #Demografie
Die Entwicklung der Geburtenraten in den USA 🇺🇸, Türkiye 🇹🇷, Israel 🇮🇱 und Thailand 🇹🇭 widerlegt eine lange gültige Hypothese des geschätzten Hans Rosling (1948 - 2017): Waren religiöse Unterschiede bisher demografisch nur innerhalb von Staaten nachweisbar, so treten diese nun auch international zutage. Deutlich.

On apprend la mort de Marjane Satrapi, l’autrice de Persepolis, à seulement 56 ans, « morte de tristesse un peu plus d’un an après le décès de Mattias Ripa, son mari et l’amour de sa vie », déclare un communiqué transmis à l’AFP. Appelez la « Liberté », une valeur qu’elle a toujours défendue.

Therapy?
No, I will listen to desperation screams of the #Hijabi woman which thought by the support from the state, she could force other people to wear and think like herself, but got humiliated instead.

Rated Bilal: A New Breed of Hero 4/10
This was really disappointing. There are definitely moments of brilliant direction, stunning character design, and impressive uses of the score and soundtrack, but the script needed a lot more polish. For the entire film there wasn't a single character that I felt I could latch on to and it made this viewing a slog. (I actually fell asleep during the first 40 minutes on my first viewing.) This movie is easily half an hour longer than it needs to be and I still don't have a clear understanding of why--not everything that was included needed to be and the film's plot turns feel as though they are pilfering pretty unabashedly from THE PRINCE OF EGYPT. I really like films in this genre, especially when animated, so this, while not awful, was definitely a letdown.

Rated The Reluctant Fundamentalist 6/10
A moving film about allegiances at the social, national, and personal levels, The Reluctant Fundamentalist has high aims but fails to fully render its many messages. Because of this, a beautiful film about the origins of culture clash and the role patriotism and fear play in producing these inevitabilities, comes across heavy-handed. This is a bit of a disappointment as the casting is spot-on--Riz Ahmed, Kiefer Sutherland, and Om Puri give some incredibly magnetic performances--and there is no dearth of technical skill.Typically I'm a fan of overambitious films, but this manages to somehow telegraph a variety of positions while never quite putting its foot down. It is perhaps too comfortable with ambiguity, certainly more comfortable than its audience is. At the film's opening this makes for compelling and interesting material, but the fact that few concrete answers or explanations are offered on the ontologies of its characters' motivations ensures that the congealed product is unrewarding. It comes as no surprise, then, that many of the supporting cast exist solely to add context and are themselves underdeveloped.All said, the film IS vibrant. When not dominated by the rich sounds and visuals of Pakistan, ethereal vocalizations and sheer and embroidered textiles, the film is arguably at its most uninteresting. One of the things I loved, in particular, was how the soundtrack was used to inspire feeling or to accompany the feelings being created and shown on screen. The sound profile of the film is itself incredibly diverse and enjoyable; the soundtrack contains oral chants, hip hop beats, and melodious instrumentations, all of which are creatively and effectively woven into the narrative.Through this film we come to realize that militancy is rarely a mask of our making or choosing, that sometimes it is chosen for us. This is the kind of film that brings cerebrality and moral philosophy to characters we often hear about but never see. While a smaller scale might have provided for more powerful meditations on the social constraints of identity, this remains a film to be seen because it manages to be both race and class-conscious, all while subverting the popular characterizations of peoples and groups in the middle east. It doesn't do it well, but it does it. And that is saying something.
