Before I begin, I have to say that I am a huge of fan of the director. I find his work, not just different but intriguing as well, especially Annihilation. He doesn't just give you a story to watch but an entire world to observe, and this is exactly what we see in this film.
When you watch this film, you can really feel how things are wrong in this world, and how journalism is one of the most important jobs in such world to bring out the truth for everyone to see.
From the opening scene of the film and I couldn't help but relate this world and its people with the genocide that's happening in Gaza right now. Other than the white interpretation, I saw Lee as Shereen Abu Akleh (The leading Palestinian journalist, who was killed covering the attack on the Jenin camp), I saw Jessie as all the young journalists in Gaza right now covering the death and the destruction of their city.
It's funny how a film about a dystopian world where nothing feels right, mirrors the reality with what's happening in Gaza right now. It's also funny how we're allowed to sympathize with the main cast of the film but when it comes to the real world, we can't do that.
All in all, this is a great film in all its aspects that deserves to be seen and reflect how we feel watching it to the real world with support to such heroes.
Pray for Gaza and Free Palestine.
