The Ghost (2023)
Two Korean sisters must save their family after a ghost tears the family apart.

Openning the pages of diaries of famous people means discovering a small universe of personality. At the beginning of the 20th century, Olena Shovgenova, the daughter of a famous Russian scientist (and later the famous Ukrainian poetess Olena Teliha), found herself with her family in Kyiv, where she fell in love for the first time, but was forced to leave the city and her lover. In Czechoslovakia, the future poetess reveals a shocking fact - Ukrainian culture lives in exile. Here she falls in love with the Cossack Mykhailo Teliha, with whom she later moves to Warsaw. But the desire to return to her beloved Kyiv does not leave Olena.

Netflix’s Shadow and Bone has a complicated relationship with race. It has a diverse cast, but not without its problems. Based on Leigh Bardugo’s two book series, the show features characters from the Shadow and Bone trilogy, which is very straight and white, and the Six of Crows duology, which is much more diverse. When bringing together a cast and writing about these characters, the team behind the show expanded upon some of the representation missing from the first trilogy, then seemed to take away representation from the duology. Shadow and Bone seems to play a bit of a push and pull game when it comes to portraying diversity onscreen.

“And I think to myself….what a wonderful world”. Louis Armstrong sang about this notion via his classic 1967 song, an ode to witnessing elements of our life that should be but some reminders of exactly what that concluding line of each verse indicates.

It sounds harsh, but again, so much of what is occurring speaks not to beauty, but bedlam.
