"Space Sweepers": A Charming Sci-Fi Adventure with a Political Message
Behind all the action, 'Space Sweepers' is a surprisingly heartfelt and progressive story about building community.

Marian and Ido are married and have a 16-year-old daughter, Pinkie. Marian and Ido's marriage has become boring. Ido is a conservative and neat furniture manufacturer, but secretly starts a relationship with the beautiful Emma, his secretary. When Marian discovers this, she offers him a choice: stay with her or move on with Emma. Ido cannot make this choice, so Marian throws him out. Ido moves in with Ida, but continues to interfere intensively with Pinkie, who to his horror becomes friends with Wim, one of his Turkish workers.

Gritty and bleak are the best words to describe this film. There’s nothing happy about it.
I came across Urchin by chance and decided to watch it because of the title. It made me think of the spiky animal that lives at the bottom of the ocean, and the old Dickensian novels, where an urchin was an orphaned, homeless child in shaggy and dirty clothes.
How powerful can a story be when it is stripped to the bare essentials of just a room, a handful of people and raw human voice?
An unlikely friendship changes the hearts of men, and helps a young boy come into his own.
There’s no two ways about it — Bridgerton is horny. Shondaland’s newest venture- released on Netflix on Christmas- is certainly a spectacle to behold, just as the premise; essentially an Austenian, Regency-Era Gossip Girl, helmed by Shonda Rhimes, the reigning queen of steamy romance television. It would not be inaccurate to describe it as Jane Austen porn.
