Wind
A mosaic of stories explore Iranian modernity. Following a Persian literary model, personal dilemmas, fanciful speculations and historical motifs follow one another, establishing evocative correspondences between them. From the commitment with which the characters narrate events, it is clear that, beyond history, human time corresponds to myth and anecdote: mythological birds, misregistered surnames, scars from chemical weapons, and memories of deceased women.

What Netflix's “Shadow and Bone” Gets Right and Wrong with the Books’ Diversity
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.
