8. The Islamic world is facing a kind of religious and cultural dilemma of modernization. This is not only caused by extremism. Traditions and beliefs also impose a great impression on local ordinary people. Hisak actually has a little meaning of African Jia Zhangke. He is using desert sand and camel buffalo to record the times. I have to say that the photography of Sisak’s movies is really good, which is a lot of...

Prose-style narrative film. The clues are intertwined like idle pens, decorated with a few large visions of the Sahel in West Africa, and the documentary presents the "now" ancient city of Timbuktu. However, the story is outstanding. The most shots in the film give close-ups of the characters' faces, always focusing, and freezing repeatedly. Undoubtedly, this is an ambitious story, although many people do not buy it for such an exposed expression. It is also possible that because of its foreign...

Literary films, although not too easy to understand, they are beautiful. Films with Western ideology have slightly reduced credibility. The performances of several professional Malian musicians in the film are so good, they are totally...

The simple lens records a calm story, no strong conflicts, no bloody violence, but ordinary life is swallowed up in a calm conflict, whether Allah or Allah is finally annihilated by human desires and reduced to self-satisfaction. Tool of. "I am not afraid of anyone, the Lord is afraid of Allah; I do not forgive, maybe I will forgive in the future, but not now." The best...

Sorrow of the Birds
On a chilling winter night in Chicago, see Mauritanian director Abderrahmane Sissako's film Timbuktu (2014). Timbuktu is in Mali, West Africa, at the southern tip of the Sahara Desert. In 2012, extremist Islamic militant groups occupied the city for several months; in 2013, French and Mali... -

the power of despair
When I downloaded this film, I saw that it was the Best Foreign Language Film at the 87th Academy Awards. I was so curious that I had never heard of it. After watching it, I searched for it and found that it was nominated for the Best Foreign Language Film. It was finally awarded to Ida. Seen....e

Omar: Satima?
Satima: I'm listening.

L'Imam: [to a jihadist] Stop this. You cause harm to Islam and Muslims. You put children in danger in front of their poor mother. You even hit the mother of two children without any good reason. Before you came, a woman was here to complain that you forced her to wear gloves-- here they are-- without convincing her of their usefulness, as is prescribed by Allah and His prophet. Remember the words of Allah the Almighty: "So pardon them. Consult them in the matter. Speak with them. Once you've made a decision, put your trust in Allah, for He loves those who rely upon Him." Where's leniency? Where's forgiveness? Where's piety? Where's exchange... exchange? Where is God in all this?
