Die Bronzezeit ist angebrochen! Für den Stamm, in dem auch Steinzeitmensch Dug lebt, ist das eine schlechte Nachricht. Sie werden aus ihrem Tal vertrieben. Doch dann gelingt es Dug, den Bronzezeit-Herrscher Lord Nooth herauszufordern. Sollte es Dugs Stamm gelingen, bei einem Fußballmatch die Meister Real Bronzio zu besiegen, dürfen sie in ihr Tal zurückkehren. Das Problem dabei ist nur, dass Dugs Stammesangehörige weder sonderlich schlau noch geschickt sind. Dank der Hilfe der fußballbegeisterten Goona allerdings wird aus der chaotischen Truppe schließlich doch ein Team. Der Puppentrickfilm von Nick Park aus dem Aardman-Studio besticht durch seine liebenswert gestalteten Figuren, die perfekte Stop-Motion-Animation und den Charme des Handgemachten. Mit enormem Bild- und Wortwitz inzeniert Park seine Geschichte über eine Gruppe Underdogs, die entgegen aller Erwartungen schließlich triumphieren wird.

Having recently set a goal of using only recycled or sustainably sourced textiles by 2030, H&M is pushing everyone in the field of fashion to clean up their act. Increased transparency in sourcing and labour, along with more concerted efforts to close the loop on the production of waste, could hugely affect the long-term health of the industry.

  • 'I Do All My Movies for Harvey Weinstein, That's Miramax for All of You
    Weinstein, Spacey, Schwahn, Westwick… Some names among many of those who have been tarnished by 2017. So, is 2017 being just rude? Or did something happen in Hollywood last year? As though this industry is always in movement, 2017 might have been a real trigger, exposing things already present, hiding in the corner of Weinstein's couch. To be more serious, 2017 has been the year of revelation, or rather the year of acknowledgement of things everybody always knew. October the 5th 2017, The New York Times publishes an accusation of a dozen women against Harvey Weinstein. He is incriminated of Verbal or physical harassment and rape. Little by little, the list of his victims grows and soon seem to never stop – today over 80 women accused him while rumours and allusions about his casting couch were made publicly since 1998. As though his behaviour was an open secret within the industry and sometimes beyond, it has never been taken seriously. http://knowyourmeme.com/photos/1319936-weinstein-effect The first public accusation was by Gwyneth Paltrow: “'I do all my movies for Harvey Weinstein, that's Miramax for all of you. And I'm lucky to do them there, but he will coerce you to do a thing or two.” 1 to treat them as sexual objects? And why waiting so many years to speak out the truth? In a strict the case 20 years later… psychological sense, every man in a position of power is likely to harass his female employees. It breaks out.

  • The Theatricality of Revenge and How It Shapes Identity
    1 Masques and Metamorphosis: The Theatricality of Revenge and How It Shapes Identity Nicholas Keough English There are numerous features characteristic of the revenge tragedy genre, including the Machiavellian villain, the supernatural, and madness. It is the distinct play-within-the- play feature, however, that figures most prominently—and most crucially—in the dénouement of revenge narratives. In each example of revenge tragedy, a corrupt political leadership victimizes the story’s protagonist. Because the protagonist suffers at the hands of a sovereign entity, he cannot seek recourse through traditional modes of justice. Rather than endure an impotent role within the perverted political landscape, the protagonist seizes dramaturgical authority, creating a performative space that allows him to recast the self into a position of power. Thomas Kyd’s The Spanish Tragedy, Thomas Middleton’s The Revenger’s Tragedy, and George R. R. Martin’s novel series A Song of Ice and Fire, as well as David Benioff and D.B. Weiss’ television adaptation of Martin’s work, Game of Thrones, each demonstrate the necessity for theatricality and performance as it relates to the revenger’s ability to secure private vengeance. Furthermore, despite the apparent successes of these revengers, each work reveals the degenerative moral effects of role- playing, ultimately calling into question the validity and usefulness of revenge. Oftentimes revenge tragedies begin when a political superior uses his position of authority to violently exploit a non-noble character. This action—traditionally murder, 2 rape, or mutilation1—highlights the hierarchal system of power to which the characters in these fictional societies are subject.
