Straight Actors Playing Queer Characters: This is Exhausting
It’s 2021 and what few LGBTQ+ films that are produced by major film studios continue to star cisgender heterosexual actors, rather than actual LGBTQ+ people.
Germany at War
In the 21st century, fairy tales have ambiguous endings. A great love that the whole city talked about — between a Bundeswehr soldier of unheard-of beauty and the fastest bicycle courier in town — becomes impossible because of her service in Afghanistan. A sad, yet not hopeless story about impossible love in times of war — and about a city where everyone knows everything and the façades of the houses are especially beautiful on Sundays.
