'Luther: The Fallen Sun', Idris Elba’s Netflix Vehicle, Fails to Make the Point
By undermining the appeal and credibility of black characters, the show compromises the very idea of diversity and representation it sets to promote.
Sandarah
During the Iraqi invasion of Kuwait, a detachment of soldiers is sent to a home to arrest the family who live there. When they arrive, the house has been hurriedly abandoned and not a soul is to be found. The youngest soldier, a photographer, discovers something unexpected – and memories of happier times overwhelm him as he goes about his duties. Beautifully animated and deep with the emotions brought about by conflict, ‘Sandarah’ is a tribute to human benevolence.
