'Happening' Explores the Horrors of Abortions Being Illegalized
I have no idea how getting an abortion is still not a basic right at this point, but that means the fight is far from over. So, films like Happening are ever-relevant.

A certain summer day. Mika Shiota, a company employee who always works silently in the corner of the company. Even though it's midsummer, the office is still very cold today because somebody has cooled the AC. Therefore, she wants to go to the restroom immediately. Mika heads to the restroom, but all are in use. Despite the limits of patience, visitors have come. "It is impossible now!" Mika goes to the restrooms on every floor of the company building, but all are locked! I just can't stand it anymore! At that time, the forbidden door is reflected in her eyes. On the other hand, Mika's subordinates are preparing cold tea to serve visitors. He has poured tea into the glass and seems to overflow at any moment.

One of the reasons I love watching movies is that, much like books, they serve as windows into other times and different places. Productions from around the world offer valuable insights into the history and culture of their respective countries. And just like literature, cinema can help us understand the present by showing us the past.
Two Distant Strangers (2020) centers around Carter James (Joey Bada$$) as he tries to get back home to his pitbull, Jeter, after spending a night at the apartment of his date Perri (Zaria Simone). What gets in the way of Carter reuniting with his dog is that every time he tries to leave Perri’s apartment, he is killed by police and wakes up back in her bed in a never-ending cycle. It addresses the issue of police brutality which rightly has been in the public eye more and more with the unjust deaths caused at the hands of law enforcement.
By undermining the appeal and credibility of black characters, the show compromises the very idea of diversity and representation it sets to promote.
