i have a lot say about how the world order reduces allegiances to common interests in power over ideology, and even more to say about the inherent tragedy of ordinary people becoming pawns in larger struggles over power and ideology. alas letterboxd isn’t the place for that. anyways, this movie was fine and interesting, but i don’t care for empathy towards the IDF. free palestine forever and always.
